With Trump indicted for Jan. 6, here are the Ohioans sentenced for storming the Capitol

Before a federal grand jury indicted former President Donald Trump on Tuesday for conspiring to steal the 2020 election, federal authorities charged more than 1,000 people nationwide with participating in the riot.

That includes at least 57 Ohioans. Of those, 28 Ohioans have pleaded guilty and six have been convicted in a trial. The rest of the cases are still pending. Nobody from Ohio has been acquitted. Only one person charged nationwide has been found not guilty.

Federal judges have sentenced 28 Ohioans for their crimes that day. Of those Ohioans given time behind bars, the majority received a sentence of five months behind bars or less.

And the federal government is still charging people. Earlier this week, Dean Robert Harshman of Waynesville was arrested and charged.
