Corinne Montoni, 33, was charged with obstruction of an official proceeding, entering a restricted building, and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds after supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the building in an attempt to stop the certification of votes in the 2020 presidential election.<\/p>\n\n\n

Montoni pleaded guilty to the disorderly conduct charge in the U.S. District Court in Washington D.C. on Monday as part of a plea deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An online tip pointed FBI agents to Montoni\u2019s social media pages, where they discovered she made several incriminating posts that day. Investigators determined she illegally entered the building through a busted door on the west side of the building, near the entrance to the Senate wing, according to court documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re in the Capitol \u2019cause this is our house,\u201d Montoni said in a video posted to Instagram. \u201cWe paid for this, and they\u2019re trying to steal it from us. Let\u2019s go!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prosecutors said Montoni was part of a crowd that pushed back against Capitol Police officers in an attempt to make it further into the building. In another video, she is heard telling other rioters to \u201cPush back! Push back!\u201d according to a release from the Department of Justice.<\/p>\n\n\n

Montoni was accused of leaving the Capitol after about ten minutes and then re-entering the building. Posts to her Parler account included the following statements, according to the DOJ: \u201cWE BREACHED THE CAPITOL OMG\u201c; \u201cInsurrection is coming. Hold the line. Stay vigilant.\u201d; \u201cStorming the Capitol to take back our country from traitors! This is OUR HOUSEEEE!\u201d; and \u201cHere\u2019s a pretty little view form inside the Capitol at our traitor DC police, with a smashed window.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a Facebook post, Montoni said, \u201cWe are DONE with these traitors. Today, we showed them how done we are. The Capitol building belongs to Us, we the people. This is our house\u2026 We broke a few windows, sure but we are a peaceful protest occupying the people\u2019s property.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montoni vowed to return to the Capitol on Inauguration Day with other Trump supporters, \u201cletting the world know we REJECT progressive liberalism.\u201d She faces up to five years in prison for the felony civil disorder charge and will learn her fate during her sentencing, which is scheduled for Sept. 28.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
