How verification works

  1. 1

    You claim the profile

    Sign in (or sign up free), then submit your DOJ case number, a mugshot or pardon record, or a court document showing this is you. Takes a couple minutes.

  2. 2

    Ryan reviews it personally

    Every claim is checked by Ryan against the DOJ docket and public record. Imposters get rejected. You only need to do this once.

  3. 3

    Profile becomes yours

    Once approved, this page comes down and a fresh case-builder takes its place. You can upload photos, scanned documents, embedded TikTok / YouTube / X videos, your testimony in your own words. Everything you upload waits for review before going public.

Why this matters for Billy

Most J6 defendant case files sit locked inside law firms. The public hears soundbites. They do not see the grievance forms denied without a hearing. They do not see the water shut off. They do not see four years of constitutional rights violated, one piece of paper at a time.

We put it in public. All of it. Every defendant who joins. One airtight record the government cannot refute. That is how this case is won.
