DALLAS — A North Texas man was sentenced Friday to one year and one day in prison for his role in the violent riots on the U.S. Capitol last year.
Nolan Bernard Cooke, 24, recorded videos from a camera strapped around his neck as he broke through a line of Capitol police, according to court documents.
Cooke pleaded guilty in March to a felony charge of civil disorder related to the Jan. 6, 2021, siege. Nearly two dozen North Texans were charged in the riots, spurred on by a false belief that the presidential election was stolen.
