Sioux City Man Reaches Plea On U.S. Capitol Riot Charges

Sioux City, Iowa — A 54-year-old Sioux City man has reached a plea deal on charges connected to the riot at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th of 2021.

Kenneth Rader has entered a plea of guilty to parading, demonstrating or picketing a capitol building. Three other counts Rader was charged with will be dropped. He’s also agreed to pay 500 dollars in restitution as his share of the nearly one and a half million dollars in damage caused to the Capitol during the riot.
