Jay Johnston<\/strong> — best known for the animated sitcom “Bob’s Burgers” — is pleading guilty to his involvement in the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol attack.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The comedian entered his plea Monday to a single count of obstructing officers during a civil disorder.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

He’s set to be sentenced in October and faces up to 5 years in federal prison — a fate shared by over 540 Capitol rioters, so far.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Johnston was arrested in California last summer and initially hit with 4 charges … though 3 were later dropped.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

He was pegged as a participant in the riot thanks to a social media post the FBI shared in March 2021.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Authorities claim he “participated with other rioters in a group assault” on police officers guarding the Capitol entrance, and also “helped carry a stolen police riot shield out.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
