At her sentencing hearing, Yvonne St Cyr did not express regret or accept any responsibility for her actions on Jan. 6, 2021.
A Jan. 6 defendant who claimed she believed she had the right to climb over broken glass to enter the Capitol was sentenced to 2 and a half years in federal prison on Wednesday.
Yvonne St Cyr — who during her trial in March was found guilty of two felony counts of civil disorder as well as several misdemeanors — was sentenced by U.S. District Judge John Bates to 30 months behinds bars, 36 months of supervised release and a $2,000 restitution to the Architect of the Capitol.
After her trial, St Cyr had said in a Facebook livestream that she wasn’t sure that the case would ever move to sentencing because “the truth” would come out before then.
“Their s—'s gonna blow up!" she said. "So, just keep watching Tucker, keep spreading the truth, keep talking about the corruption, keep sharing, and we will bring the system doooooowwwwn.”
Honestly, this is the most respectable thing they could do. If the US were facing widespread election tampering, it’s your civic duty to do something about that (ideally not by jan. 6ing it, but if you believe they’re perpetuating fraud against the country, I can see how people who worship Thomas Jefferson are swayed to revolution…).
The ones who apologize and say they weren’t a true believer were I guess just there to fuck things up? That’s definitely worse imo.
Being able to admit you were wrong when faced with the facts would be the better position.
If it was truly about believing that there was fraud, and not just that they had to take action because their guy lost, they should’ve broken away at some point with loss after loss after loss in trying to uncover that fraud.
If they’re reasonable, logical people, but not everyone is. I’m willing to believe that there’s been a concerted effort to brainwash half the country, but if they’re smart enough to see the fake now, I think they should have been smart enough not to go all in on revolution then.
Perhaps I should rephrase it: I actually believe this person might have believed they were doing the right thing. The ones who immediately changed their minds? Not at all.
but if they’re smart enough to see the fake now, I think they should have been smart enough not to go all in on revolution then.
It might be this idea that keeps some people from publicly stating they were wrong.

Bold of you to think they remember even a little of their high school history classes.
