A trial in the United States against five members of the far-right group known as the Proud Boys is set to move forward, with the group’s former leader, Enrique Tarrio, among those facing charges of seditious conspiracy for their involvement in the attack on the US Capitol in Washington, DC, on January 6, 2021.
US District Judge Timothy Kelly said jury selection would continue on Monday after he dismissed a request from the defence to delay the trial’s start, which coincides with the final public hearing of a congressional committee investigating the attack.
