Other members of the Proud Boys have been charged separately for joining the mob.
Enrique Tarrio, the national leader of the Proud Boys, has been indicted on conspiracy charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol.
A grand jury indictment, docketed Tuesday, charges Tarrio with conspiracy to obstruct Congress. Prosecutors have already leveled conspiracy charges against four Proud Boys leaders — Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs, Charles Donohoe and Zachary Rehl — who the Justice Department says played a central role in fomenting the breach of the Capitol. IN addition to Tarrio, prosecutors added another Proud Boy to the conspiracy indictment: Dominic Pezzola, who breached the Capitol when he shattered a Senate-wing window with a riot shield.
……..
Tarrio, 38, was arrested in Miami on Tuesday on the new indictment and is expected to appear in federal court there later in the day, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington, which is overseeing the prosecutions stemming from the Capitol riot. He’s the second significant leader of a right-wing group charged with orchestrating key aspects of the attack. Prosecutors in January charged Stewart Rhodes, the national leader of the Oath Keepers, with seditious conspiracy for his group’s role in storming the building and threatening the transfer of power.
