Federal prosecutors named several Northern California residents among those involved in the January 6 Capitol insurrection, highlighting a pattern of pardoning individuals associated with the event by President Trump. Over 1,500 people faced charges related to the insurrection, with at least 17 from Northern California receiving pardons after serving short jail sentences. Trump's order not only expunges their convictions but also seeks to dismiss pending indictments. Noteworthy individuals include a farming entrepreneur and a fugitive who sought asylum abroad.
Kenneth Armstrong III, an aquaponics farmer from Half Moon Bay, expressed a change of heart about January 6, now calling the event dark and troubling.
More than 1,500 people have been indicted for involvement in the Capitol break-in, with over 500 facing violence-related charges against police.
