President Donald J. Trump has blasted the Biden regime on his Truth Social account over the case of 71-year-old grandmother and great-grandmother Rebecca Lavrenz, who was found guilty on four counts on Thursday after praying inside the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Lavrenz faces three years in jail and up to $250,000 in fines.
“Rebecca Lavrez, also known as the ‘J6 Praying Grandma,’ has been unfairly targeted by Crooked Joe Biden’s DOJ, and now faces up to 1 YEAR in prison for peacefully walking around the Capitol, and praying for our Failing Nation on January 6th!” Trump wrote.
Lavrenz clarified on the War Room show on Friday that her lawyers believe she faces up to three years in jail, given the charges. Her sentencing is on August 12th, though she is expected to appeal the verdict.
“Rebecca is a 72-year-old Grandmother and Small Business Owner from Colorado, and now she is one of Joe Biden’s J6 HOSTAGES!!!” Trump added, concluding: “Crooked Joe Biden spends more time prosecuting Patriots like Rebecca, AND ME, than Violent Criminals, Thugs, Murderers, and ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS who are destroying our Country. THIS IS WHAT WE ARE UP AGAINST. MAGA2024!”
