Trump Pardons Cousin Convicted of Jan. 6 Assault

President Trump grants a pardon to Patrick McCaughey III, his cousin who serves a seven-and-a-half-year sentence for assaulting a police officer during the January 6 Capitol riot. This controversial decision, made on Trump’s first day back in office, reignites discussions about perceived inequities in the treatment of January 6 defendants compared to others involved in civil unrest.

At a recent family dinner celebrating his release, McCaughey expresses a mixed sense of regret and pride about his actions on that day, while highlighting the double standards in sentencing practices between January 6 protesters and other demonstrators, such as those from Black Lives Matter protests. His case, which included a more-than-15-year prison sentence sought by federal prosecutors, exemplifies the ongoing debate over criminal justice reform and the permanent impacts of felony convictions on individuals’ lives.
