As Donald Trump prepares to go back to the White House, a Jan. 6 defendant is asking a judge to postpone some aspects of his case, probably taking into account that the now president-elect has said in the past that one of his first acts as President will be to "free" people convicted for their roles in the attacks on the U.S. Capitol.
In between the hundreds of people prosecuted for their roles in the Jan. 6 riot is Christopher Carnell. He was found guilty earlier this year of obstruction of an official proceeding, considered a felony, as well as misdemeanor charges such as entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds and disorderly and disruptive conduct, between others.
