Nicholas Burton Reimler pleaded guilty to Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building. He could face up to six months in prison when he is sentenced on Dec. 10. Reimler is from Cedar Hill, Missouri. Investigators said Reimler was in photos posted by the FBI where the bureau asked for tips. On Jan. 10, investigators were tipped off about Reimler's presence at the riot by someone who saw his Snapchat posts from inside the building. Reimler posted videos of himself inside the Capitol on Snapchat using a "Top of the US Capitol Dome" filter with a caption that read "Lol what's going on," investigators said.
