Angelo Jude Pacheco

Pardoned January 6 defendant

Documented editorial-use image

Angelo Pacheco was 23 years old, a young man from Kansas City, Missouri, when he walked into the U.S. Capitol on January 6. Here is the receipt that matters most: he was inside for about six seconds. (FACT) He stepped through a door, turned around, and walked back out the same door. The FBI's own record puts him there for only a handful of seconds. For six seconds, he faced four federal charges. He owned it. Angelo pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor — parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building — and was sentenced to probation with a short term of home detention. No violence was ever alleged against him. (FACT) On January 20, 2025, his case was among the January 6 matters covered by President Trump's clemency. (FACT) A young man from Kansas City who spent six seconds somewhere he shouldn't have been, and answered for it. That is the whole story. The court record: U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, case no. 23-mj-169. Charging and disposition documents are public on the DOJ Capitol Breach site. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you — or your family — claiming it is free, forever.
