The highly anticipated sentencing hearing for former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio has been postponed due to an emergency, according to officials. The proceeding was scheduled to take place on Wednesday but was canceled shortly before it was set to begin. The exact nature of the emergency has not been disclosed. The sentencing has been rescheduled for September 5 at 2 p.m., and Tarrio is facing serious felonies including seditious conspiracy. The Justice Department is requesting a 33-year prison sentence for Tarrio, who was convicted for his role in the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Tarrio and four other defendants were scheduled for sentencing this week, but their hearings have been rescheduled. The rescheduling has upset family members of the defendants, who had traveled to Washington, D.C., for the hearing. The sentencing hearings for Tarrio and another Proud Boys leader, Ethan Nordean, will now take place later this week and early next week. Prosecutors are seeking a 33-year prison sentence for Nordean.
