A member of the Proud Boys has disappeared ahead of his sentencing on charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, according to an arrest warrant unsealed on Friday.

Christopher Worrell was convicted earlier this year on seven counts related to his conduct during the insurrection, including assaulting a group of Capitol Police officers with pepper spray and lying to investigators.

He was set to be sentenced on Friday, with prosecutors seeking 14 years in prison. However, a bench warrant was issued for his arrest on Tuesday, and his sentencing hearing was cancelled on Wednesday, court records show.

Calling it now: he dies in a gunfight with the feds.

Now now. He could die a grisly death due to exposure or wild animal attack when he attempts to go off grid to hide.

Meh, no real loss.

Think of that poor animal eating that bag of shit though! Poor thing would get sick for sure.

Yeah, typically if an animal kills a human it has to euthanized.

Hoping it's exposure with a few curious nibbles.

I think he'll surface in Saint Petersburg alongside Steven Seagal. It will be a test run for extracting you-know-who when the time comes.

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Build a public restroom on the remains.

No, he kills himself with some privileged sob martyr story.

Smart money's on "found auto-asphyxiated" if the GOP playbook is any indication

Cause of death : Deceased shot himself twice behind the head with a silenced weapon after accidentally falling out of 17th floor window.
