A federal judge gave Lt. Shane Lamond an 18-month sentence for leaking details of an investigation to Enrique Tarrio, the far-right group’s former leader, and lying about it later.

Retired DC Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Shane Lamond was convicted in December of one count of obstruction of justice and three charges of lying to investigators.

A former Washington, D.C. police department lieutenant was sentenced to 18 months in prison for tipping off a Proud Boys leader about an investigation and then lying about it. Shane Lamond was found guilty in federal court last December of alerting Henry “Enrique” Tarrio to a warrant for his arrest over the December 2020 burning of a Black Lives Matter flag stolen from a Black church.
