Prosecutors had sought 64 months for Jensen, describing him as a leader who "was trying to fire up a revolution" that day. "It is a miracle that more people were not injured and did not lose their lives that day," Kelly said. A jury convicted Jensen in September of five felony offenses including assaulting a law enforcement officer and obstructing an official proceeding, after a trial which featured testimony from Officer Goodman himself.
Capitol Police Inspector Thomas Lloyd said in a new letter to Judge Kelly this week that the quick thinking by Goodman likely prevented a shootout inside the Capitol to prevent rioters from reaching Senators who were at the time sheltering in place.
