The Virginia National Guardsman who was involved in the storming of the U.S. Capitol is being removed from the service component. According to the Department of Justice, Jacob Fracker pleaded guilty to a federal conspiracy charge. He was assigned to the 116th Infantry brigade combat team. Fracker was arrested on several charges a week after the attack on the Capitol, which was aimed at preventing the certification of President Joe Biden's 2020 victory. Fracker has not been allowed to perform military duties in the last 15 months, but he is still serving in the National Guard. Sikhs have sued the Marine Corps for the right to wear turbans. Alfred Puryear, a spokesman for the Virginia Guard, told Military.com that an administrative separation from the Virginia Army National Guard has begun after his civilian charges have been decided. Fracker is awaiting sentencing. It is not clear what discharge status he will be given or if he will have access to military benefits. Fracker admitted in court that he tried to keep Trump in power. Fracker testified Thursday that he felt like they had been heard by whoever they needed to be heard. Fracker and Robertson were both police officers. They were both fired after their arrest. While Fracker pleaded guilty to lesser charges, Robertson chose to go to trial and begin proceedings earlier this month. Fracker took a selfies with Robertson in the Capitol. Fracker apologized in one post, but he did not say he did anything illegal. Robertson destroyed his and Fracker's phones before they were arrested. Fracker deleted his social media posts. The two brought their firearms with them to Washington, D.C., but left them in their car. Robertson carried a wooden stick into the Capitol and threatened police. The pair attended the rally held by Trump, in which he encouraged the crowd to march on lawmakers, peddling conspiracy theories that the election had been stolen. Robertson, who was a cavalry scout, was wounded in Afghanistan in 2011. He faces up to 20 years in prison for each of the six federal charges he was found guilty of, including entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds while carrying a dangerous weapon and obstructing a civil proceeding. While the Virginia Guard is taking action against Fracker, Markofski is still in the Wisconsin National Guard. In September, Markofski pleaded guilty to one charge. He was sentenced to two years of supervised release and a fine. Markofski's unit quickly came to his defense. His platoon leader wrote a letter to the court saying that Markofski is an asset to the United States Army. This remains an ongoing personnel matter, so it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time, according to Maj. Joe Trovato, a spokesman for the Wisconsin National Guard. Veteran advocates are becoming more concerned about the radicalization of troops and the veteran community. There is little evidence to suggest that current or former service members are more susceptible to falling into extremist ideology, but advocates warn that the inherent social credibility those groups bring and their military training, even if that training is limited, are attractive to radical groups. The Justice Department says that since the Capitol assault, 800 people have been arrested in all 50 states. More than 250 people have been charged with assault or obstruction of law enforcement.
