The vast majority of J6 defendants spent no time in pretrial detention.
He's the one that organized the protest at the Capitol?
After the debate, the Trump administration sought to distance itself from Tarrio and Latinos for Trump. A spokesman told The New York Times, "This individual is not affiliated with the Trump campaign, the family, or our official Latinos for Trump coalition," referring to an arm of the campaign with the same name as the group Tarrio is involved with.
They have him on camera throwing things at police. I'll have to see if I can dig that video up for you.

They don't have home on camera entering the Capitol. They don't have him on camera assaulting police. They have no evidence he had a plan to storm the Capitol and was working with others to effect that plan, so they can't really charge him with conspiracy.

WASHINGTON — Ray Epps, a Jan. 6 participant whose removal from the FBI's Capitol Violence webpage sparked conspiracy theories that he was a federal informant, was charged in connection with the Capitol attack on Tuesday.
Epps is charged with one misdemeanor count, disorderly or disruptive conduct on restricted grounds. He was charged by information, which suggests that he plans to enter a plea deal.

I'm sure this will do nothing to quell the conspiracy theories surrounding Epps.
That said, he has now been charged for his actions on J6 and it sounds like he will be taking a plea deal.
The charges sound in line with most of the J6 cases, barring those where there's physical evidence of the defendant committing assault.

This is more like getting bitch slapped by TPTB than it's
getting justice from the legal system. We're in real trouble folks.
If obvious facades like this are propped up by non thinking gov.
shills? And woke libs who hate this country and seek it's destruction.
And we sit and don't recognize our enemy as freedom loving people.
Then we will get what they're inviting.
Ahhh don't get me started I get vertigo on the soap box.
I always wonder how long they’ve been at it.

Regardless of his lawsuit, he should be charged no differently then the proud boys, especially the one who wasn't even there. Ray Epps is forever immortalized on the silver screen for his actions that day and the day prior. He should get no less than 18 years. Don't you agree, or are you also a fan of 2 sides of justice?

why not just kill them. saves money in the long run.
Then, on July 1, between the hours of 3:37 a.m.and 5:55 p.m., the FBI finally took action on Ray Epps. But not to prosecute him, or to announce a sweeping investigation or FBI SWAT raid on Epps’s house for all of his phones and electronics. Instead, someone at the FBI quietly and stealthily purged every trace of Ray Epps from the Capitol Riots Most Wanted database.
Ray Epps appears to be among the primary orchestrators of the very first breach of the Capitol’s police barricades at 12:50pm on January 6. Epps appears to have led the “breach team” that committed the very first illegal acts on that fateful day. What’s more, Epps and his “breach team” did all their dirty work with 20 minutes still remaining in President Trump’s National Mall speech, and with the vast majority of Trump supporters still 30 minutes away from the Capitol.
Lt. Tarik Khalid Johnson is seen in the video asking a group of men to help him get more than a dozen trapped Capitol Police officers out of the Capitol.
“The men who answered the call to help were members of the Oath Keepers, a nationwide group of current and former military, law enforcement, and first responders who have been targeted by federal prosecutors for allegedly conspiring to attack the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021,” the report noted.
“The prosecutors’ narrative has more holes than Swiss cheese, but it [the video] does directly refute their claim,” said attorney Jonathon Moseley, who previously represented Florida Oath Keepers leader Kelly Meggs.
