Proud Boys Cases Dismissed by Judge | Washington DC News

A federal judge just tossed out the conspiracy case against Proud Boys leaders tied to January 6, citing a presidential pardon that wiped the slate clean for dozens of Capitol rioters — including former chairman Enrique Tarrio. The move, part of a sweeping clemency directive, effectively shuts the door on these cases forever, regardless of the alleged crimes. The judge sided with the administration’s blanket approach, ignoring the severity of the offenses and treating all January 6 defendants the same — even those convicted of seditious conspiracy and obstructing law enforcement. The government formally asked for dismissal back in April, and the judge rubber-stamped it Friday.
