Anthony Richard Moat

Pardoned January 6 defendant

Documented editorial-use image

Anthony Moat of Philadelphia did something almost no other January 6 defendant did: he called the FBI on himself. FACT: on February 19, 2021, weeks before any agent knocked on his door, Moat contacted the FBI, admitted he had been inside the Capitol on January 6, and sent a task force officer the video from his own phone (Law & Crime, charging documents). He handed the government its own case. The record matched the honesty. He pleaded guilty on October 28, 2022, to a single count of parading or demonstrating in the Capitol, a misdemeanor. On January 27, 2023, he was sentenced to 10 days of incarceration, $500 restitution, and a $10 special assessment. One of the lightest sentences on the entire J6 docket. On January 20, 2025, presidential clemency covered January 6-related cases. THE CASE RECORD Case 1:21-cr-375, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested April 9, 2021. Initial appearance April 23, 2021. Charged via criminal information May 25, 2021. Arraigned June 4, 2021, pleaded not guilty to all counts. Pleaded guilty October 28, 2022.
