Enrique Tarrio, the former leader of the Proud Boys, was sentenced on Tuesday to 22 years in prison for the central role he played in organizing a gang of his pro-Trump followers to attack the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and stop the peaceful transfer of presidential power.

This guy is an ex-leader. There was also the current leader sentenced and the oath keepers leader sentenced last week. There are also division leaders and branch leaders. It's like there are multiple gangs and multiple sections of each gang that all have leaders.

Like how the boy scouts has troop leaders

Nah, troop leaders are Stone et al. These guys are senior patrol leaders.
