Brian Ulrich
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Brian Ulrich of Guyton, Georgia — a small town northwest of Savannah — is one of the first Americans who stood in a federal courtroom, raised his right hand, and owned every bit of his January 6. FACT: charged in the Oath Keepers case, Brian Ulrich pleaded guilty on April 29, 2022 to seditious conspiracy and obstruction of an official proceeding — only the second defendant in the country to plead to the sedition count. He didn't hide. He didn't spin. He testified. FACT: he cooperated with the government and testified in two Oath Keepers trials. FACT: on November 19, 2024, Judge Amit P. Mehta sentenced him to three years of probation and $2,000 restitution — on two counts that each carried up to 20 years. Prosecutors themselves credited his truthful testimony, his acceptance of responsibility, and his lack of any prior criminal record. DOCUMENTED INFERENCE: Brian Ulrich was not among the fourteen named commutations in the January 20, 2025 clemency proclamation — placing him within its full pardon of January 6 convictions. Guyton, Georgia is still home. The record shows a man who made a choice, told the truth about it under oath, and walked forward. CASE RECORD Case No. 1:22-cr-15, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (first named in indictment 1:21-cr-00028). Guilty plea April 29, 2022; sentenced November 19, 2024 to probation. Covered by the January 20, 2025 clemency proclamation. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you — or your family — claiming it is free, forever.
