    The Justice Department on Wednesday appealed the sentences handed down to seven members of the Oath Keepers — including founder Stewart Rhodes — for their roles in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, a signal that prosecutors are not satisfied with the severity of the jail terms delivered by the federal judge overseeing the case.

    • Florida Oath Keeper leader Kelly Meggs received a 12-year term; DOJ sought 21 years.

    • Roberto Minuta of New York was sentenced to 4.5 years; DOJ sought 17 years.

    • Joseph Hackett of Florida received a 3.5-year sentence; DOJ sought 12 years.

    • Ed Vallejo of Arizona received a 3-year sentence; DOJ sought 17 years.

    • David Moerschel of Florida was sentenced to three years: DOJ sought 10 years.

    • Jessica Watkins of Ohio, who was sentenced to 8.5 years in jail; DOJ sought 18 years.

    • Kenneth Harrelson of Florida, who was sentenced to 4 years; DOJ sought 15.
