After he won the presidential election, Donald Trump told Time magazine that he was still considering pardoning his supporters who were involved in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol but that he was particularly eyeing those who were charged with “non-violent” crimes.
“I’m going to do case-by-case, and if they were non-violent, I think they’ve been greatly punished,” he said.
Instead, on his first day in office, Trump went far broader, issuing pardons for most of the more than 1,500 people charged with crimes in the Jan. 6 attack. His actions have paved the way for the releases of numerous people found guilty of violent attacks.
