Dustin Sargent

Pardoned January 6 defendant

Documented editorial-use image

Dustin Sargent is a Kunkletown, Pennsylvania man -- a son of small-town, rural Monroe County -- whose name became part of the sprawling January 6 docket. Dustin Sargent was in his early thirties, living in Kunkletown, Pennsylvania, when he traveled to Washington, D.C. He was one of many rural Pennsylvanians who made the trip that day. THE LEGAL FIGHT: Sargent was charged in the District of Columbia in early 2023 -- roughly two years after the event -- with several offenses including assault-related counts and obstruction. He maintained the presumption of innocence that every American is owed. On January 20, 2025, President Trump issued a full, complete and unconditional pardon covering more than 1,500 people charged or convicted in connection with January 6, and news coverage documented Pennsylvania defendants being released and cleared. Dustin Sargent's prosecution fell within that grant of clemency. (FACT, per DOJ records and the January 20, 2025 clemency proclamation. DOCUMENTED INFERENCE as to individual clemency effect.) CASE RECORD: Dustin Sargent, case number 1:23-cr-37, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Complaint filed January 23, 2023; indicted February 1, 2023. Charges are charges; the court record stands alongside the January 20, 2025 clemency. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you -- or your family -- claiming it is free, forever.
