A Pennsylvania man charged with participating the US Capitol riot was sentenced to six months of probation this week after telling the court that he is now working as a pizza delivery driver after losing his insurance job as a result of the insurrection.
Edward McAlanis pleaded guilty in November 2021 to one count of parading, demonstrating, or picketing in the US Capitol. He initially faced four charges, including violent entry and disorderly and disruptive conduct in a Capitol building. But as the government works to prosecute the more than 750 people arrested in connection to the attack, federal prosecutors have offered several rioters the lesser charge in exchange for their guilty pleas.
