Arlington Proud Boy 'Milkshake' given 5 years in prison for Capitol siege

ARLINGTON — A federal judge sentenced a Proud Boy from Arlington to five years Tuesday for assaulting a federal officer as he breached the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

Daniel Lyons Scott, nicknamed “Milkshake,” was named by federal agents as a prominent member of the far-right group that made the push to storm Congress, according to court records. He was one of the first to breach the Capitol, prosecutors wrote, citing a review of Parler and YouTube video footage reported by The Daily Herald.

U.S. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth gave Scott five years for assaulting a federal officer and obstruction of the official proceeding.

According to Politico, as of May 2023, more than 1,000 suspects have been charged with federal crimes for their roles in the attempted coup. Over 480 defendants have received sentences, with over 275 of those receiving time behind bars.
