A former chairman of the right-wing Proud Boys group was sentenced on Tuesday to 22 years in prison for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump trying to overturn the former president's election defeat.
You can try to spin it as a “good thing” that the Trump appointed judge failed to deliver a sentence in accordance with the guidelines all you want. The fact of the matter remains Tarrio got off far too easy and by at least five years.
It was probably part of a plea deal. Defense agreed to lighter sentence in exchange for not appealing.
As pointed out, he is appealing. Also, it states that the prosecution requested the maximum sentence.
Article says Tarrio plans to appeal.
You should read the article because it clearly explains that he’s planning to appeal. It’s buried all the way down in the third sentence.

Can you suggest another realistic possibility, or are you just being contrarian?
Your comments are also speculative. You’re speculating that there wasn’t a plea deal when in all reality there probably was. I guess we’ll need to find out, won’t we?
