WASHINGTON, June 11
US prosecutors have obtained a conspiracy indictment against six California men associated with the Three Percenters right-wing militia, the latest in a series of such charges arising from the January 6 riot by former President Donald Trump's supporters.
The accused face charges, including conspiring to obstruct an official proceeding, which carries a 20-year maximum sentence, the Justice Department said, adding that four of the six men had been “identified as members of Three Percenters militias” and that all of them chatted on Telegram to coordinate their actions on January 6.
Two of the six men, Alan Hostetter and Russell Taylor, were seen adviser to Trump a day before. — Reuters
