At her sentencing hearing, Yvonne St Cyr did not express regret or accept any responsibility for her actions on Jan. 6, 2021.
A Jan. 6 defendant who claimed she believed she had the right to climb over broken glass to enter the Capitol was sentenced to 2 and a half years in federal prison on Wednesday.
Yvonne St Cyr — who during her trial in March was found guilty of two felony counts of civil disorder as well as several misdemeanors — was sentenced by U.S. District Judge John Bates to 30 months behinds bars, 36 months of supervised release and a $2,000 restitution to the Architect of the Capitol.
After her trial, St Cyr had said in a Facebook livestream that she wasn’t sure that the case would ever move to sentencing because “the truth” would come out before then.
“Their s—'s gonna blow up!" she said. "So, just keep watching Tucker, keep spreading the truth, keep talking about the corruption, keep sharing, and we will bring the system doooooowwwwn.”
“She also repeated her claim that the last presidential election was stolen.”
…and…
“In a Facebook livestream after her sentencing, St Cyr also said she hadn’t filed taxes since 2019, and she encouraged her followers not to pay their taxes.”
So she supported the Trump presidency…but refused to pay tax 2 years into his presidency?
Sending their best as usual
Unrepentant means she should have a longer sentence.
Wow, let’s cover some of the gems there.
After her trial, St Cyr had said in a Facebook livestream that she wasn’t sure the case would ever move to sentencing because “the truth” would come out before then.
I’m sure “the truth” is coming right after infrastructure month.
"So just keep watching Tucker, keep spreading the truth, keep talking about the corruption, keep sharing, and we will bring the system doooooowwwwn.”
Tucker Carlson’s show was canceled.
At her sentencing hearing Wednesday, St Cyr’s attorney, Nicole Owens, said her client was at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, because of a “misguided sense of duty.”
C’mon don’t leave us hanging, who was the source of that misguided sense? Also, getting ice cream on your first date with someone only to find out they’re lactose intolerant, that’s misguided. Attempting to overthrow the government, that’s a few levels past misguided. Just saying.
“I’ve been on a spiritual journey,” St Cyr said. Then she launched into a bizarre 45-minute rant — until the judge cut her off with a stern warning to wrap up — on a series of topics, including her beliefs about the air we breathe, her spiritual being, radio frequencies, her difficult upbringing and a woman she watched being arrested on a playground during the Covid pandemic.
Actually I blame the judge on this one. After sitting for weeks listening to this lady’s crazy Facebook streams, figuring “what’s the worse that could happen if I let this lady speak freely?”, you’re just opening yourself up for that.
That said, I’m sure the 45-minute jam packed insane stream of consciousness diatribe was something to behold.
She also talked about her actions during the Capitol riot. She didn’t express regret or accept any responsibility for her actions that day, and she indicated that she wasn’t concerned about the prospect of serving jail time
Shocking. Been a pattern of that with folks who attempted to overthrow the government. It’s like these small jail sentences aren’t deterrent enough.
“I did the right thing,” St Cyr said about her actions on Jan. 6. “I know it sounds delusional.”
Oh sweetheart, it’s a bit past just sounding that way.
In a Facebook livestream after her sentencing, St Cyr also said she hadn’t filed taxes since 2019, and she encouraged her followers not to pay their taxes.
I foresee another court case in her future, just a hunch.
“I know it sounds delusional.”
Just the teeniest bit of rationality poking through there.
I thought the same thing about the 45 mins & the judge at first too, but now I wonder if she’s involved in any other crimes of this type, maybe the 45 min rant could somehow be used as evidence against her. So maybe it was smart in some way? This is my head-canon at least.
What a fucking dipshit.
Well, she did the right thing to get behind bars.
"So, just keep watching Tucker, keep spreading the truth
Now, which one? Tucker or truth? You definitely cannot have both.
These people are just plain dangerous.
Lead poisoning
How brainwashed could someone be…? - Yes!
Stuff like this basically confirms to me that all religion is made-up bullshit.
People keep saying “they wouldn’t have believed it so strongly if it wasn’t true!!”
Motherfucker we have VIDEO evidence of Trump lying and people still believe.
Religion, MAGA… It’s just all cults from top to bottom.
I am also not a big fan of religion, but I wouldn’t put this in the same basket. This is more like a cult or a sect, where members are blindly believing what their master says.
This reminds me more of Jim Jones and his followers, resulting in the Jonestown massacre, rather than the average religious person (except radical evangelicals, taliban and such extremists).
And the distinction between those two is??? A religion is merely a cult that has gathered enough followers to go mainstream.
There are many religious people (at least in Europe) who are occasionally going to church, but other than that harmless, while the other ones are dangerous, because fanatic in their beliefs.
if she still thinks she did the right thing, the locking her away from civilised society is the right thing to do.
Doesn’t that mean her only regret is to being caught? She’ll be the same person in 2.5 years.
She’s deranged looking. A byproduct of America’s culture of excess, greed, and stupidity. You can see it in her eyes. She’s never had to fight for anything in her entire life, and she lacks any critical thinking skills. She literally thought she could overthrow the US government with an iphone.
When I was little I went to a small school. All of us were in all of the same classes. We had to go at the pace of the slowest kids. I hated it then, and welcomed going into faster tracks when I hit high school.
Sadly, life is like those early classrooms…the dimmer bulbs will always hold us up.
