Capitol Rioters Argue Pardons Apply to Other Charges 

“Less than a month after receiving pardons for participating in the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol, some former defendants find themselves in a familiar place: back in court, facing other criminal charges,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Other defendants are arguing they should be absolved of other alleged crimes, such as illegal gun possession and child pornography, discovered during Jan. 6 investigations.”

“At least one defendant has died in a post-pardon altercation with police.”
