Documented editorial-use image

John Franklin Lammons is a Galveston County, Texas small-business owner and jiu-jitsu coach — a man who built things in his community with his own two hands. John owns and operates Anaconda Jiu-Jitsu and the Rage Cage in the Galveston area, coaching students on the mat and running a local gym. He is a working entrepreneur, not a career activist. [FACT — local reporting] On January 6, 2021, Lammons traveled to Washington, D.C., for the rally. By his own account, the Capitol doors were open and "someone said come in"; he entered, met no resistance, and later left through a window because the doorways were jammed with people. [THEIR ACCOUNT — per FBI statement of facts and local reporting] He was charged with misdemeanors: entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading, demonstrating, or picketing. He pleaded guilty to a single count and accepted a sentence of one month followed by 36 months of probation. [FACT] Case record: U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, case no. 1:22-mj-44. Arrested March 24, 2022. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants. [FACT] John Lammons is a coach and a Galveston small-business owner first.
