The federal prosecutor, who is currently overseeing more than 1,200 cases connected to the J6 Capitol protest, also urged Americans during the said press conference to continue helping investigators identify roughly 80 individuals believed to have assaulted police during the "riot." "The siege of the Capitol is likely the largest single day of mass assault of law enforcement officers in our nation's history," Graves claimed. He never mentioned the name of former President Donald Trump but said the violence on Jan. 6 was a direct result of claims that the election was stolen. "We will never know all the weapons that were on the Capitol grounds because very few in the mob were actually arrested on Jan. 6," he added. His presentation during the briefing focused on some of the Department of Justice's largest successes in 2023, including the successful convictions of four Proud Boys leaders on seditious conspiracy charges and lengthy sentences handed down to both Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. In September, former Proud Boys National Chairman Enrique Tarrio was sentenced to 22 years in prison for helming a plot to incite violence at the Capitol. In May, Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes received 18 years in prison for conspiring with other members of his militia to oppose the lawful transfer of presidential power.
