Summary
The government’s case against top Proud Boys members convicted for plotting to overturn the 2020 election has collapsed after a federal judge tossed their remaining charges — a move expected following Trump’s pardons last year. The judge, while acknowledging the Capitol riot as a “perilous event” and direct attack on democracy, explicitly said he couldn’t uphold convictions after Trump’s clemency. This ruling specifically impacts four Proud Boys — Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl, and Dominic Pezzola — who received commutations but not full pardons. Meanwhile, Oath Keepers’ seditious conspiracy charges remain pending. Former Proud Boys national chairman Enrique Tarrio, who got a 22-year sentence, was fully pardoned by Trump.
