A Tennessee man dubbed “zip-tie guy” on social media was sentenced Friday to nearly five years in prison in connection with the breach of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth sentenced Eric Munchel of Nashville to 57 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, the Justice Department said in a news release. Munchel, 32, was also ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution.
Munchel and his mother, Lisa Marie Eisenhart, 59, were seen in photos and videos wearing tactical gear and carrying plastic zip tie-style handcuffs that were allegedly stolen from a closet in the Capitol building on Jan. 6.
Munchel's mother was also sentenced Friday, to 30 months in prison.
Attorneys for Munchel and Eisenhart did not immediately respond to requests for comment Friday night.
