Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and four others are charged with seditious conspiracy for their alleged roles in the Capitol riot. They've all pleaded not guilty. Tarrio's attorneys point out he wasn't inside the Capitol that day since he'd been arrested. Lawyers for the others say they didn't have a plan when they entered the building. But prosecutors argue the five worked together to try to stop lawmakers from certifying the 2020 presidential election results.
