Alexander Fan — Houston, Texas. Alexander is a Houstonian — a Clear Brook High School graduate and former University of Houston student. FACT (court record): Alexander flew to Washington and entered the Capitol. He pleaded guilty to a single federal misdemeanor and was sentenced to 12 months of probation and $500 restitution — one of the lowest-level dispositions in the entire January 6 docket. He was cooperative with agents and even showed them a selfie from that day. Charges are charges; the plea is the plea. NEEDS AUTHENTICATION / worth knowing: Houston news outlets reported that an FBI agent was later accused of stealing from Alexander's home in connection with the investigation. If accurate, that says something about who was wronged here. Treat it as reported, not yet fully settled on this page. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants. A young Houston grad who owned up, took probation, and went back to his life. That is the record.
