Jackson Reffitt, the teen who reported his father to authorities and wiretapped his conversations, resulting in the most punitive January 6 convictions, says he feels unsafe after Trump’s J6 pardons.
During sentencing, Jackson testified and accused his father Guy Reffitt of making threats and requested a maximum sentence. He also accused the January 6 defendant of slowly losing himself over the years and falling “into a horrible community to find a place in this life.”
However, his sister Peyton testified that her father was not a threat to the family and disputed the alleged mental illness.
Guy was accused of being a member of The Three Percenters and “lighting the match” that triggered the protests. Although he did not enter the Capitol, Democratic prosecutors accused him of turning the crowd “into an unstoppable force” and sought a 15-year sentence.
The J6 defendant was eventually found guilty of two counts of civil disorder and a single count of obstructing official proceedings. He was sentenced to 87 months in prison, a $2,000 fine, and 3 years of supervised release.
