KELLY now discussing with the lawyers what to do after accepting the partial verdict. DOJ urging Kelly to send jurors back to keep deliberating on non-unanimous counts.
Biggs attorney Norm PATTIS and Rehl attorney Carmen HERNANDEZ are urging the judge to decline to take a partial verdict until the jury has explicitly said they're deadlocked on the unresolved counts.

KELLY will take the partial verdict, however, and tell the jury it may continue deliberating on the remaining counts. So it should be coming momentarily.

Via Scott MacFarlane:
Tarrio was NOT at Capitol on Jan 6
A conviction on charge of seditious conspiracy is a huge win for Justice Dept. 👉🏼👉🏼And a potential piece of enormous leverage for any future defendant who wasn’t at Capitol on Jan 6 … but is considered part of the conspiracy👈🏼👈🏼

I'm looking at you, Ginni Thomas.
I'm looking at you, Ginni Thomas.
Jeramee@darthstar @GottaLaff crossing my fingers....
Ruben Carbajal@GottaLaff Thank you so much for your coverage!
M.S. Bellows, Jr.@GottaLaff Hallelujah.
If only DOJ had been this aggressive in Malheur, Jan. 6 might not have happened.
@msbellows Sigh...
@GottaLaff At the time, I did a guest hit on @rsgreacen's public radio show about how the Oregon USA screwed up by not charging seditious conspiracy. It fit that situation even better than here.
Ah, well.
PNW Deb@GottaLaff As in…members of congress?!!! The ones who were at the Capitol acting innocent and running for their lives after helping to incite the riot? I hope the likes of Josh Hawley, Jim Jordan and Ted Cruz are terrified.
@DebR As in... Trump
@GottaLaff Exactly, but they insist on getting the henchmen first.
Kevin RussellVery Good Point, very encouraging.

@GottaLaff yessssss!!!
thegardendude 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇵🇸@GottaLaff now let’s see if they get a sentence with the same gravity of their offenses.
Nihl L'Amas@GottaLaff I don't know the legal implication, but he has updated the thread to say it's "obstruction of official proceeding".
Eddie the Bulldog@GottaLaff wow. That is huge. Now throw their asses in jail. For a LONG time.
