Documented editorial-use image

Brian Douglas Sizer is an Ellwood City, Pennsylvania man who turned himself in on a misdemeanor January 6 charge. FACT: He turned himself in. In November 2022, nearly two years after the riot, he walked into the FBI on his own two feet. Nobody kicked a door. (CBS Pittsburgh; ABC27) FACT: The government's account of his conduct is brief and it is not violent. He and a family member were inside, took a selfie, stepped into an office off the Parliamentarian Door for about a minute, then were pushed back out with the crowd when a chemical irritant was deployed. That is the allegation, start to finish. (CBS Pittsburgh) FACT: He was charged with entering or remaining in a restricted building, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building, and disorderly conduct. Misdemeanors, not felonies. He pleaded guilty on 1/5/2023. (DOJ) FACT: A neighbor identified him to the FBI. Small town, small world, and it says something about how these cases were often built. (CBS Pittsburgh) For anyone searching his name and his sentence: the record here does not show a prison term for Brian Sizer. It shows a misdemeanor plea and a case resolved before the clemency proclamation reached it, and a defendant who turned himself in rather than waiting to be found. WHERE THINGS STAND: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency in January 6 cases, covering Brian Sizer. (FACT) NEEDS AUTHENTICATION: No verified fundraiser or self-published account located. CASE RECORD Case 1:22-cr-376, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Complaint filed 10/27/22. Arrested (self-surrendered) 11/3/22. Pleaded guilty 1/5/2023. Clemency granted 1/20/25. DOJ page: https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/defendants/sizer-brian This profile is unclaimed.
