"The evidence over the course of the trial showed that it was Jared Wise that was attacking our country, our Constitution, the country that he swore to protect."
"I hope that is it, the judge said as he gaveled the hearing to a close. Wise put a MAGA hat on his bald head and approached Fontan."
"The sequence of events, Wise soon wrote on X, could not have been more miraculous."
Jared Wise, a former FBI agent, was tried for his involvement in the January 6 Capitol riot, where he encouraged rioters. Prosecutors emphasized his betrayal of his oath. As the trial concluded, Donald Trump was inaugurated, leading to a new official ordering the dismissal of all charges against Wise. The judge expressed hope that the case was over, and Wise left the courthouse free, later describing the events as miraculous. The prosecutor, Taylor Fontan, was subsequently fired ten days later.
