months
after the DC

The Assistant
US Attorney
says they are
collecting any
video of
alleged
officer
misconduct on
Jan 6.
Assistant US
Attorney: I
plan in 60
days to
provide
defense
counsel with
the video of
Mr. Rivera's
statement to
the FBI.
Judge:
Any plea
offer?
AUSA:
Yes, the most
generous one,
not even
covered by US
Sentencing
Guideline.
$500 in
restitution,
sentence of 60
days.
Judge:
Basically
disorderly
conduct?
AUSA:
His choice.
But the plea
offer has been
rejected. And
defense says
that's not
where we are.
Judge
Colleen
Kollar-Kotelly:
It's his
decision to
make. But I do
put them on
the record,
what he was
offered.
Defense
lawyer: They
said six
months in
jail. Now
they're saying
60 days.
AUSA:
I'm fairly
certain it's
60 days.
Judge:
That's a big
difference.
AUSA: I
stand
corrected, it
would be six
months.
Judge:
If he changes
his mind,
you'll reach
out to the
court or the
government?
Defense:
Yes, your
honor.
Judge:
I just want to
make sure we
have a record
of what was
offered. Is it
premature to
proceed to
trial?
Defense:
Yes, we may
have motions.
So let's wait.
Judge:
Mr. Rivera, do
you agree?
Rivera:
Yes, your
Honor. Judge:
So, sixty
days. Or more.
Let's say Aug
31.
We will
have more on
this.
