Trump Pardons Over 1,500 Jan. 6 Rioters, Including Tarrio and Rhodes Convicted of Seditious Conspiracy
Jan 21, 2025, 04:26 PM
Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes have been released from prison following a sweeping clemency order issued by President Donald Trump. The order, which was part of a broader initiative affecting over 1,500 defendants charged in connection with the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, resulted in the immediate release of Tarrio and Rhodes. Tarrio had been serving a 22-year sentence, while Rhodes was serving 18 years, both for seditious conspiracy convictions related to their roles in the attack on the U.S. Capitol. Trump's actions effectively nullified the sentences and ongoing cases against the rioters, marking a significant reversal of the legal consequences faced by those involved in the incident.
