Aaron James Mileur is a Wasilla, Alaska man charged in the January 6 Capitol case and pardoned in 2025. Even the case file is modest about his conduct. Footage shows him walking inside the building, with no documentation that he engaged in any violence, consistent with the misdemeanor-only resolution of his case. (DOCUMENTED INFERENCE: American Gulag; FACT: KTOO) The legal fight, plainly: Mileur was charged with four misdemeanors and pleaded guilty to one, parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building. The remaining counts, including entering and remaining in a restricted building and disorderly conduct, were dismissed at sentencing. (FACT: DOJ, KTOO) On March 20, 2023, Judge Randolph Moss sentenced him to 24 months of probation, $500 in restitution, and a $10 special assessment. No jail time. That is the disposition the court chose after reviewing everything the government had. (FACT: KTOO) This is a small-scale case by the standard of the docket: a man from Wasilla who walked into a building he should not have entered, pleaded to one misdemeanor, and paid a modest fine. There is no allegation here of assault, of weapons, or of planning. WHERE THINGS STAND: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants, covering Aaron Mileur's case. His probation obligations ended with that order. (FACT) CASE RECORD Case No. 1:21-cr-248, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested March 16, 2021, in Wasilla. Criminal information filed March 24, 2021. Arraigned April 1, 2021, and pleaded not guilty to all counts. Pleaded guilty to Count 4 on December 21, 2022. Sentenced March 20, 2023, to 24 months probation, $500 restitution. Clemency granted January 20, 2025. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
