More Than 1,100 people have been arrested on Capitol riot charges.
Before he learned his fate on Tuesday, an emotional Tarrio apologised to police and residents of Washington Dc for his role in The 6 January 2021 riot, when supporters of then-US President Donald Trump stormed The congressional building as lawmakers met to certify Joe Biden 's election victory.
" I Am extremely ashamed and disappointed that they were caused grief and suffering, " he told Washington's Federal Courthouse . " I will have To Live with that shame for The rest of My Life . "
Tarrio, who was wearing an orange jail uniform, added: " I was My Own worst enemy.
" My hubris convinced me that I was a victim and targeted unfairly. "
Acknowledging that Mr Trump had lost The November 2020 presidential election, Tarrio said: " I Am not a political zealot. Inflicting harm or changing The results of The election was not my goal.
" I didn't think it was even possible to change The results of The election. "
His lawyer argued that Tarrio was a " keyboard ninja" who tended to " talk trash" but had no intention of overthrowing The government.
" My client is no terrorist, " said his attorney, Sabino Jauregui. " My client is a misguided patriot. "
But US District Judge Timothy Kelly , a Trump nominee, noted that Tarrio had on many previous occasions expressed No Remorse for his actions.
" Seditious conspiracy is a serious offence, " said Judge Kelly. " Mr Tarrio was The ultimate leader of that conspiracy. "
