Where are they now? Pennsylvania's most notorious insurrectionists

York Daily Record

Most of the 64 Pennsylvanians arrested in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol remain in criminal limbo, awaiting trials or plea hearings, but one of the most infamous among them asked for money to defend himself - and blamed others for his predicament.

A fundraising page for Zach Rehl, a Proud Boys leader from Philadelphia and the son of a city police officer, claims "the Proud Boys of course had nothing to do with the attacks on police or battles with police" on Jan. 6. The fundraising page - now disabled - is titled "Help US Capitol Police injured on January 6 2021."

The page, created by Rehl's attorney Jonathon Moseley, pleads for assistance for officers injured the day of the rioting. However, in a court motion filed by Moseley, the attorney was also raising funds to pay for Rehl's defense. Rehl has been in prison since his arrest.

In the court motion, Moseley said he has spent "considerable time” raising money for his client's legal defense, including a page on the Christian fundraising site GiveSendGo, which has permitted donations that other sites have refused.

"It is overwhelmingly obvious that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser put the U.S. Capitol Police in this dangerous situation," the fundraising page states.

The Southern Poverty Law Center defines the Proud Boys as a "hate group. "

"Rank-and-file Proud Boys and leaders regularly spout white nationalist memes and maintain affiliations with known extremists. They are known for anti-Muslim and misogynistic rhetoric," according to the SPLC.

Enrique Tarrio, a Proud Boys leader, raised more than $113,000 in one week on GiveSendGo after he was arrested en route to the Jan. 6 events in Washington, D.C., according to the Washington Post.

Three other Pennsylvania members of the Proud Boys were recently arrested for involvement in the Jan. 6 rioting: Brian Healion, Freedom Vy and Isaiah Giddings, all from the Philadelphia area.

Protesters loyal to President Donald Trump storm the Capitol in Washington.

In the 10 months since Jan. 6, more than 700 individuals have been arrested in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol, including over 220 individuals charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement.

Those defendants charged with assaulting officers are expected to face some of the most serious consequences. In Pennsylvania, those currently arrested for involvement with police are: Alan William Byerly, 54, Berks County; Michael James Dickinson, 30, Philadelphia; Julian Khater, 32, State College; Samuel Lazar, 36, Ephrata; Michael John Lopatic Sr., 57, Lancaster County; Robert Morss, Allegheny County; Marshall Neefe, 25, Newville; Howard Charles Richardson, 71, King of Prussia; Ryan Stephen Samsel, 37, Bristol Borough, Bucks County; Robert Sanford, 55, Boothwyn, Delaware County; Peter Schwartz, 47, Unionville, Chester County; and Barton Shively, 53, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County.

Riley June Williams, 22, of Harrisburg, was among the first Pennsylvanians to be arrested for the rioting. She is accused of stealing a laptop from Pelosi's office that day. Originally detained in jail, she was put in her mother's custody and later indicted by a grand jury, after her arrest. She has not pleaded to those charges or been tried.

Rachel Marie Powell, known as the "bullhorn lady," has been offered a plea deal and has about one more week to make a decision on it. She allegedly used a pole to force her way into the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
