Texas man who wrote ‘Murder the Media’ on Capitol door gets 4-year sentence

DALLAS — A Fort Worth man who claimed to work for Murder the Media News was sentenced to four years in federal prison for his actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Nicholas DeCarlo, 32, was sentenced Friday after pleading guilty in September to a count of obstruction of an official proceeding. DeCarlo must serve three years of supervised release following his sentence and pay a $2,500 fine and $2,000 in restitution to the agency that manages the Capitol grounds, according to court records.

DeCarlo will surrender himself to FCI Seagoville, a low security prison in Dallas County, court records say. His attorney declined to comment on the sentencing.
