Jay Johnston — best known for the animated sitcom “Bob’s Burgers” — looks like he’s going to spend just over a year behind bars for his involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot in Washington, D.C.

The comedian’s lawyer told NBC News Jay was sentenced Monday to 12 months and a day in federal prison. As we reported … Jay pled guilty back in July to one count of obstructing officers during a civil disorder.

Jay, who was facing up to 5 years in federal prison, was arrested in California last summer and initially hit with 4 charges … though 3 were later dropped.

Johnston was pegged as a participant in the riot thanks to a social media post the FBI shared in March 2021 … with the feds claiming Jay “participated with other rioters in a group assault” on cops guarding the Capitol entrance, and also “helped carry a stolen police riot shield out.”

Jay even told an acquaintance via text message he’d been at the Jan. 6 attack … according to previously filed court docs obtained by TMZ.

In addition to his legal punishment, Jay also lost his “Bob’s Burger’s” gig as a result of the insurrection … he voiced Jimmy Pesto on the animated series but was fired in 2021 after a decade on the show.
