Federal prosecutors will seek the maximum prison term allowed by law this week for a Texas man who mounted an unsuccessful bid for Congress after his conviction for participating in the Capitol riot.

Ryan Zink, 35, was convicted by a jury in September 2023 of a felony count of obstruction of an official proceeding and two misdemeanors for joining the mob on the east side of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. The Justice Department agreed to dismiss the obstruction charge in August following the Supreme Court’s ruling narrowing its use.

Despite no longer facing a felony charge, prosecutors said in a memo filed Friday that Zink should serve two years in prison and pay $500 in restitution, saying he has never expressed remorse for his conduct and has continued to “falsely portray himself as a victim.”

In their memo, prosecutors said Zink’s conduct warranted the maximum prison term on both counts. While part of the mob on Jan. 6, they said, he rushed through Capitol grounds yelling, “We knocked down the gate!”, “We want Trump!” and “We’re about to bum rush this s***!”
