As the seditious conspiracy trial comes to a close, attorneys for the Proud Boys have placed the blame for the January 6th attack on the US Capitol on former President Donald Trump. Defense lawyers in the case have argued that the Proud Boys' leader, Enrique Tarrio, was being used as a scapegoat for the former president and his allies in power. Another defense attorney argued that Trump had sold a lie to his followers when he called on them to march to the Capitol on January 6th, promising that it would "be wild." The Proud Boys and five of their members, including Tarrio, are facing numerous charges, including seditious conspiracy, in connection with the Capitol riot. Although three of the group's members were at the Capitol building, Tarrio was not physically present. If convicted, he will be the first person to be held responsible for the insurrection despite not being present on the scene. The prosecution has argued that the Proud Boys saw themselves as Trump's army in executing the assault, but the defense lawyers have rejected those allegations, calling them "ludicrous." Jury deliberations are set to begin today.
