A federal grand jury has come down with a verdict against four members of the Oath Keepers. According to reports, the grand jury found them all guilty of seditious conspiracy.

Roberto Minuta, 38; Joseph Hackett, 52; David Moerschel, 45; and Edward Vallejo, 64, also were found guilty of obstructing and conspiring to obstruct lawmakers and Congress in general, the Washington Post reports.

“They claimed to wrap themselves in the Constitution, but they trampled it,” said top prosecutor Jeffrey Nestler in the trial’s dramatic closing arguments. “They ignored the will of the people” while having “the audacity to claim to be oath-keepers.”
