Agnieszka Chwiesiuk

Pardoned January 6 defendant

Documented editorial-use image

Agnieszka Chwiesiuk — Chicago, Illinois. FACT: Agnieszka was inside the Capitol roughly ten minutes. Ten. FACT: Every count against her was a misdemeanor: entering or remaining in a restricted building, disruptive conduct in a restricted building, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading. No weapon. No assault. No property damage. Nothing violent was ever alleged against her. FACT: She went with her brother. They drove from the family home in Chicago and arrived in Washington on January 5, 2021. This is a family story before it is anything else. FACT: In June 2021, when federal agents came to the family home for her brother, Agnieszka asked them directly: are you going to arrest me too? She did not hide. She asked. It took the government another 18 months to come back for her. FACT: Prosecutors asked for eight months. The court gave her far less — three months of home detention, three years of probation, 200 hours of community service, and $500 restitution. Judges see people, and this judge cut the government's request by a wide margin. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump issued clemency covering January 6 defendants. Illinois defendants, including Agnieszka, were among those pardoned. Two hundred hours of community service. That is five full work weeks given back to Chicago by a woman who spent ten minutes in a building. She is a daughter of a Chicago family, and there is a whole life here that no wire story ever bothered with. If you know her — her work, her church, her neighborhood — this page is waiting on you.
