Reyes also is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinecorpstimes.com\/news\/your-marine-corps\/2023\/06\/13\/two-active-duty-marines-plead-guilty-to-capitol-riot-charges\/\" target=\"_blank\">scheduled to sentence co-defendants<\/a> Micah Coomer on Tuesday and Joshua Abate on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The three Marines \u2014 friends from the same unit \u2014 drove together from a military post in Virginia to Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, when then-President Donald Trump spoke at his \u201cStop the Steal\u201d rally near the White House. They joined the crowd that stormed the Capitol after Trump urged his supporters to \u201cfight like hell.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before imposing Hellonen\u2019s sentence, Reyes described how Marines fought and died in some of the fiercest battles in American history. She recited the number of casualties from some of the bloodiest wars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prosecutors recommended short terms of incarceration \u2014 30 days for Coomer and 21 days for Hellonen and Abate \u2014 along with 60 hours of community service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.dcd.254623\/gov.uscourts.dcd.254623.36.0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">A prosecutor wrote in a court filing<\/a> that their military service, while laudable, makes their conduct \u201call the more troubling.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reyes said she agreed with prosecutors that Hellonen\u2019s status as an active-duty Marine does not weigh in favor of a more lenient sentence. But she ultimately decided to spare him from a prison term, sentencing him to four years of probation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reyes said it \u201ccarried a great deal of weight\u201d to learn that Hellonen maintained a positive attitude and stellar work ethic when he was effectively demoted after the Jan. 6 attack. He went from working as a signals analyst to a job that few Marines want, inventorying military gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe only person who can give you a second chance is yourself,\u201d she told him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI take full responsibility for my actions and I\u2019ll carry this with me for the rest of my life,\u201d Hellonen told the judge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hellonen, Coomer and Abate pleaded guilty earlier this year to parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building, a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum of six months behind bars. Hundreds of Capitol rioters have pleaded guilty to the same charge, which is akin to trespassing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hellonen was carrying a yellow \u201cDon\u2019t Tread on Me\u201d flag when they entered the Capitol through a door that other rioters had breached about seven minutes earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After walking to the Rotunda, they placed a red \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d hat on a statute and took photos of it. They remained inside the Capitol for nearly an hour, joining other rioters in chanting \u201cStop the Steal!\u201d and \u201cFour More Years!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">None of them is accused of engaging in any violence or destruction on Jan. 6. But prosecutors said none of them has expressed sincere remorse for their crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coomer bragged on social media about taking part in \u201chistory,\u201d called for a \u201cfresh start\u201d and said he was \u201cwaiting for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinecorpstimes.com\/flashpoints\/extremism-disinformation\/2023\/05\/18\/marine-who-embraced-boogaloo-beliefs-pleads-guilty-in-jan-6-case\/\" target=\"_blank\">boogaloo<\/a>,\u201d a slang term for a second civil war in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coomer\u2019s statement that he was \u201choping for a second civil war to topple what he viewed as a \u2018corrupt\u2019 government was deeply ominous, given that his military training and access to military weapons would make him a particularly effective participant in such a war against the government,\u201d the prosecutor wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than 600 people have been sentenced for Capitol riot-related federal crimes. Over 100 of them have served in the U.S. military, <a href=\"https:\/\/interactives.ap.org\/jan-6-prosecutions\/\" target=\"_blank\">according to an Associated Press review of court records.<\/a> Only a few were active-duty military or law enforcement personnel on Jan. 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Jan. 18, 2023, law enforcement officers arrested Coomer at a military office in Oceanside, California; Abate at his home in Fort Meade, Maryland; and Hellonen at his residence in Jacksonville, North Carolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of Friday, all three Marines were still on active-duty status, according to the Marine Corps. But all three could be separated from the Marine Corps \u201con less than honorable conditions,\u201d prosecutors said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hellonen received separation paperwork in July, while Coomer awaited a decision last Friday on his possible separation, according to prosecutors. They said Abate was still enlisted in the Marine Corps as of Sept. 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUnder other circumstances, that service would be incredibly laudable,\u201d a prosecutor, Madison Mumma, told the judge. \u201cAt best, it shouldn\u2019t be credited at all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hellonen, a Michigan native, was stationed at the military base in Quantico, Virginia, on Jan. 6. He worked at the Marine Corps Information Operations Center as a signals intelligence analyst and was promoted to the rank of sergeant in August 2021, said his attorney, Halerie Costello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hellonen moved to Camp Lejeune in North Carolina in February 2022 and was waiting to be deployed when he was arrested, according to Costello. Hellonen knows he shouldn\u2019t have entered the Capitol on Jan. 6, <a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.dcd.254623\/gov.uscourts.dcd.254623.37.0.pdf\"
