WASHINGTON — A former California police chief who called for the execution of Donald Trump’s political enemies, joined the U.S. Capitol attack and then spread conspiracy theories about Jan. 6 was sentenced to more than 11 years in federal prison Thursday.
Alan Hostetter was found guilty in July on charges of conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an official proceeding, entering or remaining on restricted grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon and disorderly or disruptive conduct on restricted grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon. He represented himself at a bench trial before U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, a Ronald Reagan appointee, who sentenced him to 135 months Thursday.
Hostetter, who was the chief of the La Habra, California, Police Department in 2010, was arrested in June 2021.
Oh, please tell me that he was disqualified from his pension
If being a criminal disqualified cops from their pensions, then there wouldn’t be a penny paid out.
Hahahahah, I doubt it.
