Proud Boy on house arrest in Jan. 6 case disappears ahead of sentencing

Authorities are searching for a member of the Proud Boys extremist group who disappeared days before his sentencing in a U.S. Capitol riot case, where prosecutors are seeking more than a decade in prison. Christopher Worrell of Naples, Florida, was supposed to be sentenced Friday after being found guilty of spraying pepper spray gel on police officers, part of the mob storming the Capitol as Congress was certifying Joe Biden’s presidential victory. Prosecutors had asked a judge to sentence him to 14 years. Court records show the sentencing was canceled Tuesday and a bench warrant issued for his arrest, initially under seal. The U.S. attorney’s office for Washington, D.C., said he was unaccounted for and encouraged the public to share any information about his whereabouts.

Trump cancels press conference on election fraud claims, citing attorneys' advice

Former President Donald Trump now says he won’t be holding a press conference next week to unveil what he claims is new evidence of fraud in the 2020 election in Georgia, citing the advice of lawyers. No compelling evidence of the wide-scale fraud Trump alleges has emerged in the two-and-a-half years since the election and Republican officials in the state — where three recounts confirmed Trump’s loss to President Joe Biden — have long said he lost fairly. Trump had announced that he would be holding the event hours after a grand jury voted to charge him and others in an alleged conspiracy to illegally overturn the results of the 2020 election and stop the peaceful transition of power.
