The saga of “squad” member Jamaal Bowman and the false fire alarm at the Capitol complex on September 30 appears to be drawing to a rather low-key close. Bowman was charged with a misdemeanor yesterday and will reportedly be booked today. While the charge of raising a false fire alarm can carry a sentence of up to six months in jail, Bowman will plead guilty, pay a $1,000 fine, and write a formal letter of apology to the Capitol Hill Police. Assuming he stays out of further trouble, he can have the charges withdrawn after three months. Calls from other members of the House to have him censured or removed have not resulted in any action.
