Others 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金d for 参加するing in the insurrection have sought public office, but Evans is believed to be the first who served 刑務所,拘置所 time to 正式に 発表する a 企て,努力,提案.

"I chose today to 発表する my 企て,努力,提案 for the 衆議院 because it is an important 周年記念日 in US history," Evans said in a 声明. "While my 指名する will indelibly be part of it, we should also use (it) as a chance to remind ourselves about why 僕主主義 is so important and how easily it can be 脅すd."

"I will forever 耐える the 思い出の品 that I made a 決定的な mistake," Evans said. "I´ve let 負かす/撃墜する mysel f, I´ve let 負かす/撃墜する my community and, most importantly, I´ve let 負かす/撃墜する my family."

After his 解放(する) in October, Evans began 非難するing the 連邦の 政府´s 起訴s of (ワシントンの)連邦議会議事堂 暴動 被告s. His 声明 Friday 述べるd the 起訴s as a "miscarriage" of 司法(官). にもかかわらず his contrition at 宣告,判決ing, Evans said his "解決する never 病弱なd."

The 結果 of Evans´ 事例/患者 might have been different had he spoken his mind 事前の to 宣告,判決ing, said Neama Rahmani, a former 連邦の 検察官,検事 in San Diego who now practices 法律 at a Los Angeles 会社/堅い.

受託するing 責任/義務 is something 連邦の 裁判官s look for, he said: "It's part of 宣告,判決ing 指導基準s." If Evans had tried to make excuses for his 行為/行う, he likely would have received a longer 宣告,判決, Rahmani said.

"What you have with these (ワシントンの)連邦議会議事堂 暴徒s that makes it very unique is, they´re really true 信奉者s and they 行為/法令/行動する very irrationally. Most of them have little to no 犯罪の history. A lot of them are ex-軍の, former 法律 施行 types. It just boggles the mind for me to see how they´re 事実上の/代理," he said.

Although Evans has gone from (ワシントンの)連邦議会議事堂 暴徒 to 連邦の 候補者, "I don´t 推定する/予想する him to be the last," Rahmani said.

の中で them was Michael Fanone, who said Thursday that the fact that MAGA 極端論者s who 参加するd in the attack are now in 議会 is an 侮辱 to the 警官s who were there defending it.

"I almost died defending the (ワシントンの)連邦議会議事堂 from people who thought 倒すing the 政府 was a good idea," Fanone said at a news 会議/協議会. "The worst part is that our elected leaders 許す this to happen and yet this week people who encouraged and even …に出席するd the insurrection are now taking their places as leaders in the new House 大多数."
