The federal jury has reached a verdict in the Oath Keepers J6 seditious conspiracy trial.
It's going to take a bit for all of the defendants and lawyers to get to the courtroom for the reading of the verdict.
The *big* seditious conspiracy charge.
Stewart Rhodes and Kelly Meggs, Guilty
Ken Harrelson, Jessica Watkins, and Thomas Harrelson, Not Guilty
Everyone but Caldwell will remain in jail pending sentencing in a few months.

Leader of Oath Keepers and Oath Keepers Member Found Guilty of Seditious Conspiracy and Other Charges Related to U.S. Capitol Breach
One of the high-profile Oath Keeper defendants Jessica Watkins is a trans female. It will be interesting to see which prison she's assigned to under the new federal Transgender Offender Manual.
“In deciding whether to assign a transgender or intersex inmate to a facility for male or female inmates…the agency shall consider on a case-by-case basis whether a placement would ensure the inmate’s health and safety, and whether the placement would present management or security problems.”
@jjmacnab More, please.
There are several other counts for each defendant.
