No one specific. Just the concept of the public spectacle.

Jan 6th is probably a good example of how the elite would react. Everyone involved would be located, prosecuted, and locked up.

Man, I wish that's what happened with the people in the US Jan 6 situation
January 6th is a reference to a failed insurrection instigated and coordinated by those same authoritarians that has been so insufficiently punished that it may as well be called a practice run.
EveryoneA smattering of useful idiots would be located...FTFY
You're thinking of Jan 1 and Brazil, not Jan 6th and usa

Brazil didn't fuck around, unlike the US
A proper response would have been to send in the national guard, corral all the insurrectionists and put them in a camp to await trial there.
Speedy justice, all with insurrection and murder/felony murder as the basis for their charges.
Then you figure out how to work through the backlog of prison sentences. Maybe use an island for that or something. Far away from mainland US like Guam.
There you provide food, housing, schooling and allow them a chance to become productive members of society after their sentence.
