Tyler Bensch, who used bear spray during the Capitol attack, was sentenced to probation and 60 days home detention instead of the nine months in prison sought by prosecutors.

    Cooper went on to say that Bensch hopes to start a career in law enforcement, adding that it’s “not beyond the realm of possibility” that he could do so even with his misdemeanors. Bensch is currently working for a pool cleaning company, and the conditions of his sentence will allow him to leave his home for employment during his 60 days of home detention.

    So he’s not even actually being detained at home for any length of time. He just has to stay at home after work and on weekends for a few weeks. The horror.
