Proud Boys member who went on the run after conviction in the Jan. 6 riot gets 10 years in prison

A member of the Proud Boys extremist group who went on the run after he was convicted in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack at the U.S. Capitol and then allegedly faked a drug overdose after he was caught was sentenced Thursday to 10 years in prison. Christopher Worrell, who was convicted of assaulting police with pepper spray, was on house arrest in Naples, Florida, when he disappeared in August, ahead of his original sentencing date. Worrell suffers from a rare form of lymphoma and said he was afraid the cancer treatment he'd get during a long prison sentence could allow the disease to kill him.
