"Taranto differs from other misdemeanor defendants charged for participating in the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol," the detention memo filed by federal prosecutors said. "Taranto has continued to act on the same motivations that caused him to breach the Capitol by communicating threats to lawmakers who oppose his views.
