A man who was pardoned for rioting on Jan. 6, 2021, at the Capitol was found guilty Wednesday of touching a woman’s hair on the Metro while filming it and posting that video on social media.
Judge Epstein will sentence Betancur on Thursday at 2 p.m. The maximum sentence for simple assault, a misdemeanor, is 180 days of incarceration.
It will not be the end of Betancur’s legal troubles, however. He faces an assault charge in Arlington for a similar incident on the Metro there. Betancur is also facing stalking charges in D.C.
Creepy, lonely fucker.
I don't think there's any question he'll escalate.
Judge Epstein
