A waterfront Florida restaurant has foiled a Capitol rioter’s plans to host a celebratory send-off before serving time for his participation in the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Adam Johnson invited friends to celebrate his “last Friday of freedom” at Caddy’s in Bradenton, Florida, on April 7, according to a Facebook event page. The party event features a viral photo of Johnson holding a podium belonging to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in the Capitol rotunda on Jan. 6. Johnson pleaded guilty to federal misdemeanor charges of entering and remaining in a restricted building. He was sentenced to 75 days in prison followed by one year of supervised release in February. Johnson must also complete 200 hours of community service and pay a $5,000 fine.
In a post on his Facebook event page, the 36-year-old jokingly encouraged attendees to bring “shivs, files, and phone cards” to help send him off before going to prison for the “lamest charge in history.”
