A cadet at South Carolina’s military college The Citadel and his alleged accomplice have been given a Jan. 3, 2023, trial date in the case brought against them by the federal government in the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot.
On Wednesday, U.S. Judge Tanya Chutkan gave Elias Irizarry, of York County, a chance to finish his junior year fall semester, which ends in December. Irizarry had put off a decision on whether to go to trial or plead guilty numerous times, delays that allowed him to complete his sophomore year.
Chutkan indicated it would be a trial by jury.
Irizarry, a Trump supporter who sported a red “Make America Great Again” hat during the riot, and his alleged accomplice, Grayson Sherill, have both declined plea deals for lesser charges from the government.
In December, they were indicted on revamped charges by a federal grand jury.
Irizarry faces eight misdemeanor charges, including violent entry and disorderly conduct at the Capitol.
Sherill, who lives across the North Carolina-South Carolina state line in Gaston County, faces a felony charge of assaulting an officer along with the same various misdemeanor charges that Irizarry faces.
Both men have pleaded not guilty.
Another man arrested with them, Elliot Bishai, has already pleaded guilty and will be sentenced in late June.

Looks like the delays were on their side.
