What was accomplished? by the guilty verdict?

Wildwood - What was accomplished? by the guilty verdict? A conviction on a minor felony charge which will be reversed on appeal?
The trail should be about sedition, a charge the Proud Boys leader was convicted and imprisoned for, in the old days a hanging offense .Should not the inciter of the riot which shamed this nation, be charged and convicted like his followers? Convict him of the real crime he committed .
