A once-aspiring Proud Boy from Camden County was sentenced Friday to two weeks’ incarceration for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Lawrence Earl Stackhouse III, 33, of Blackwood, had texted a friend the week before the insurrection asking for an application to join the group. He was wearing a Proud Boys hoodie as he followed the mob past the smashed windows of the Capitol building and through the kicked-in door of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office.
“I ruined my life with my dumb decisions,” he told U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell during a court hearing in Washington. “I regret getting involved in politics at all. I regret allowing it to fry my brain.”
