A Federal indictment will have lasting impact on those people. They are basically on a forever blacklist. No reputable company will hire a CEO with a federal indictment, no school with hire a teacher with a record, same with law enforcement agencies hiring. They are not eligible for any government positions from Federal to City levels. If you are contractor, you are not eligible to bid on any Federally funded contracts. If you are a worker, you are pretty much excluded from any jobs that require background checks.

Man, that NY Supreme Court judge's kid is ultra-mega cringe.

They could. But it won't be easy. The law is very clear. Entering the Capitol Building by force or violence, entering or remaining on the floor of either chamber are considered class E felony—punishable by up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. I think most of the cases will be pretty cut and dry. Ignorance is no excuse under the eyes of the law.
I just want to note for those who don't know: In NY, our district courts are called Supreme Courts. Like, you get a DUI, you appear in front of the Supreme Court.
Our highest Court in NY is the Court of Appeals.
Just in case people were thinking this was the son of an important judge - he's not. He's the son of a working trial judge.
Hey, I can help out the FBI here. Start by looking at all the traitors working for the Capital police. The ones that decided to stop guarding doors, the ones that decided to let people in, and the ones that just backed down when threatened with violence. An angry mob was chanting how they wanted to hang the vice President and members of Congress, and the Capital Police decided to "Let them do their thing" (Exact quote from a police supervisor), and open the barricades and let them in.
So how about we start looking at who enabled the violence by starting with the insurrectionists in uniform? Don't worry, we can get the others too, but I kind of feel like we should sort out the fact our capital is protected by cowards and traitors first.
Capitol police leadership, House/Senate protection leadership (Sergeant-at-Arms and deputies and anyone else involved) all need to be fired wholesale, and investigated and prosecuted if there is cause.
And a review of every single offices conduct that was deployed that day needs to take place, with charges for every office who allowed the mob to storm the building, especially those taking selfies and giving them high fives.
The only ones being charged should be those in charge of security at the capitol (D.C. Police). I feel like the capitol should have better security than anywhere.
