Pardoned Jan. 6 rioter Andrew Paul Johnson was convicted of five counts, including molesting a child under 12 and exposing himself to children.

NPR reported that Johnson was found guilty by a jury in Hernando County, Florida, on Tuesday. He faces up to life in prison, according to prosecutor William Forgie.

The Hernando County Sheriff's Office described a pattern of abuse that took place "over a many-month span" in its police report.

The pardoned rioter attempted to bribe one victim with money he said he would receive as restitution from his conviction for storming the U.S. Capitol, police said.

After rioting at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Johnson described himself as an "American Terrorist" and "Proud J6er." Prosecutors accused him of violating court orders by posing with a gun during his criminal case.

After being sworn into office for his second term, President Donald Trump pardoned Johnson for breaking into the Capitol.

The post UK crypto holders brace for FCA’s expanded regulatory reach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. British crypto holders may soon face a very different landscape as the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) moves to expand its regulatory reach in the industry. A new consultation paper outlines how the watchdog intends to apply its rulebook to crypto firms, shaping everything from asset safeguarding to trading platform operation. According to the financial regulator, these proposals would translate into clearer protections for retail investors and stricter oversight of crypto firms. UK FCA plans Until now, UK crypto users mostly encountered the FCA through rules on promotions and anti-money laundering checks. The consultation paper goes much further. It proposes direct oversight of stablecoin issuers, custodians, and crypto-asset trading platforms (CATPs). For investors, that means the wallets, exchanges, and coins they rely on could soon be subject to the same governance and resilience standards as traditional financial institutions. The regulator has also clarified that firms need official authorization before serving customers. This condition should, in theory, reduce the risk of sudden platform failures or unclear accountability. David Geale, the FCA’s executive director of payments and digital finance, said the proposals are designed to strike a balance between innovation and protection. He explained: “We want to develop a sustainable and competitive crypto sector – balancing innovation, market integrity and trust.” Geale noted that while the rules will not eliminate investment risks, they will create consistent standards, helping consumers understand what to expect from registered firms. Why does this matter for crypto holders? The UK regulatory framework shift would provide safer custody of assets, better disclosure of risks, and clearer recourse if something goes wrong. However, the regulator was also frank in its submission, arguing that no rulebook can eliminate the volatility or inherent risks of holding digital assets.
