Archive card · not a photograph

Brian Boele is a Lakeland, Florida man in Polk County whose January 6 case ended without any finding of violence against him. FACT: On January 6, 2021, Brian was among the crowd that moved onto the Capitol grounds and toward the Lower West Terrace. He was arrested more than a year later and released the same week on his own recognizance, no detention, trusted to return home to his family and community while his case proceeded. FACT: Brian was indicted May 25, 2022 and arrested June 3, 2022 on a civil disorder count and three related misdemeanors. He pleaded not guilty. Charges are charges, and Brian was never convicted of any act of violence. FACT: Tampa Bay area coverage of local January 6 defendants tracked Brian's case among the Lakeland and Clearwater men charged in connection with the Capitol, part of a state that, per nationwide tallies, had more residents charged than any other. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants. FACT: No count in his case ever alleged assault on an officer or destruction of property. His public defendant page and the DOJ record both list the civil disorder and misdemeanor counts without any weapons allegation, one of the more straightforward files among Florida's large share of January 6 defendants. WHERE THINGS STAND: A Lakeland, Florida man who was trusted to stay home with his family throughout his case, that is the person behind this file, and no allegation of violence follows him. If this is Brian or his family, claim it and tell the rest, work, family, and what Polk County knows about him that a docket never will.
