TACOMA — A Puyallup couple has pleaded guilty in federal court to a misdemeanor for parading inside the U.S. Capitol building during the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection in Washington, D.C. Scott and Holly Christensen were charged in November with multiple misdemeanor offenses for their participation in storming the grounds of the U.S. Capitol, which temporarily disrupted the certification of the 2020 presidential election and ended with five people dead. The Department of Justice said about 140 police officers were assaulted.
