Paul Hodgkins, a 38-year-old Floridian, is now the first Capitol rioter convicted of a felony to be sentenced. He pleaded guilty last month to obstructing congressional proceedings -- specifically, the counting of the electoral votes, which he helped delay on January 6. In addition to prison, Hodgkins was ordered to pay $2,000 to repair damage to the Capitol. During a break in the hearing, Hodgkins' mother told Leduc, "you talk too much." Three people have now been sentenced in the Capitol riot, including Hodgkins, an Indiana woman who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor received probation .
