PORTLAND, Ore. (KGW) — A federal judge sentenced a Lincoln City, Oregon man to 45 days in prison for his role in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Prosecutors claimed Jeffrey Hubbard, 47, entered the Capitol building by climbing through a shattered window. He repeatedly moved to the front of the crowd, where supporters of President Donald Trump confronted uniformed officers, according to court documents. Hubbard was pepper sprayed in the face. Prosecutors said he spent a total of 54 minutes inside the Capitol building.
Hubbard pleaded guilty in November to one count of parading, demonstrating, or picketing in the Capitol building.
Hubbard appeared by video conference before U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols in Washington D.C. on Friday.
“I would like to raise my Fifth Amendment right and just say — that day at the Capitol there were so many people going into the Capitol it was very confusing to maneuver and find my way out,” Hubbard said during Friday’s sentencing hearing.
In addition to serving 45 days in prison, Hubbard was also sentenced to three years of probation.
