WASHINGTON (AP) – President Trump has pardoned a Berryville, Virginia man whose sentence already was commuted for his convictions stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. Thomas Caldwell, a retired Navy intelligence officer, was tried alongside Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes but acquitted of seditious conspiracy — the most serious charge brought in the Jan. 6 attack. Rhodes was convicted of seditious conspiracy, but Caldwell was convicted of an obstruction charge. U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta sentenced him to time served with no supervised release… and now is pardoned from that conviction.
Ten days later, Trump issued a sweeping grant of clemency to all 1,500-plus people charged in the Capitol riot.
