Brandon Fellows , 30 , spent several years in jail on charges linked to the January 6 Capitol insurrection.

On the campaign trial, Trump repeatedly promised that, if elected, he’d grant pardons and clemency to the rioters.

January 6 activists have gathered every night for three years for a “vigil” outside the DC Jail where they’ve gathered.

Some January 6 defendants are already requesting delays in their criminal proceedings and ramping up appeals.

Lawyers for Jaimee Avery, Jaimee Tarrio and Christopher Carnell have also requested a delay in criminal proceedings.

“Will they draw a line in the sand, or would it be a blanket pardon?” said Steven Metcalfe , an attorney representing several high-profile January 6 rioters.
