Abram Markofski is a young man from La Crosse, Wisconsin. FACT: At the time of January 6, he was a citizen-soldier — he enlisted in the Wisconsin Army National Guard in July 2019 and served as a private first class with the 1st Battalion, 128th Infantry (La Crosse Tribune; FOX 9). FACT: Reporting on his case noted there was no evidence he took part in any violence or destruction at the Capitol, and that he was cooperative with law enforcement before and after his arrest (La Crosse Tribune). The legal fight, plainly: Abram was charged with four misdemeanor counts and pleaded guilty to one — parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building. On December 10, 2021 he was sentenced to 24 months of probation, $500 in restitution, and a $1,000 fine (Kenosha News). On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants.
