Andrew Kade Starling is a young man from Wallace, North Carolina, down in Duplin County, and he was 27 years old when the federal government finally came looking for him over four misdemeanors. Three and a half years after January 6, 2021. Four misdemeanors. That is the whole file. WHO HE IS FACT: Andrew Kade Starling is listed at Wallace, North Carolina. He was 27 at the time of charging. (NPR Jan. 6 Archive) FACT: He was arrested on August 12, 2024, in Wilmington, North Carolina. By then he had been living his life in eastern North Carolina for more than three years since January 6. THE CHARGES, AS CHARGES CHARGE ONLY: Andrew Starling was charged with four petty and misdemeanor counts only. Entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds. Disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds. Disorderly conduct in a Capitol building. Parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building. FACT: No felony was charged. No assault was charged. No weapon was charged. No violence count appears anywhere in his record, and NPR's archive does not flag his case for violence or assault. HIS LEGAL FIGHT FACT: Andrew Kade Starling pleaded NOT GUILTY to all charges. He did not take a plea. He was prepared to make the government prove it. FACT: He never had to. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering the January 6 prosecutions, and on January 21, 2025, the court granted the government's motion to dismiss his case with prejudice. With prejudice means it is finished and cannot be refiled. CASE RECORD Case No. 1:24-mj-00244, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
