Photo investigators say Munger took inside the Capitol building

When investigators spoke with Munger at his Goshen home, they took photos of the clothing he wore to the Capitol.

Goshen resident Jeffrey Munger has pleaded guilty in connection with the January 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol building in Washington DC.

Munger pleaded guilty to parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building. The other charges against him were dismissed as part of the agreement.

Munger pleaded guilty on Friday.

As part of the plea agreement, he must pay $500 restitution to the Architect of the Capitol.

The government says damage from the riot was assessed at $1,495,326.55.

Munger’s sentence will be determined by the court at sentencing. He faces up to 6 months in prison, 5 years of probation, and/or a fine of up to $5,000.
