Rebecca Lavrenz was found guilty in federal district court in Washington,DCon all 4 counts lodged against her: Entering and remaining in a restricted building, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a capitol building, and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a capitol.

The former president said that Lavrenz, a great-grandmother in her seventies who operates a bed-and-breakfast near Colorado Springs, had been "unfairly targeted by crooked joe biden's DOJ."

"Rebecca Lavrenz, also known as the 'J6 Praying Grandma,' has been unfairly targeted by Crooked Joe Biden's DOJ, and now faces up to 1 YEAR in prison for peacefully walking around the Capitol, and praying for our Failing Nation on January 6th!" wrote Trump at his Truth Social account.

"Rebecca is a 72-year-old Grandmother and Small Business Owner from Colorado, and now she is one of Joe Biden's J6 HOSTAGES!!!" continued Trump. "Crooked Joe Biden spends more time prosecuting Patriots like Rebecca, AND ME, than Violent Criminals, Thugs, Murderers, and ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS who are destroying our Country. THIS IS WHAT WE ARE UP AGAINST. MAGA2024!"

In addition to time in prison, Lavrez faces fines of more than $200,000 in addition to her attorney fees.

A tearful Lavrenz reacted to the jury's decision, as she drove away from the court:

In tears as I drive by the Capitol for the first time since January 2021.
