Charles Tyler Himber is a Slidell man - St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana, the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain - who was 27 years old on January 6, 2021 and 30 by the time a federal judge finally sentenced him. Four months. That was the sentence. Then a full pardon wiped it. WHO HE IS FACT - Himber is a resident of Slidell, St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana, and was one of three Northshore men prosecuted over January 6 (NOLA.com; WWL-TV). FACT - He was arrested in February 2024 - more than three years after January 6, 2021 - and had been living openly in his own community the entire time. FACT - He attended the rally in Washington, D.C. on January 6 and, on his own Facebook account, posted in real time about what he was seeing. He documented himself rather than hiding. NEEDS AUTHENTICATION - Charles Tyler Himber trade, employer, family, and military service if any have never been reported publicly. This archive has no account of his working life. If someone who knows him fills it in, we will publish it. THE LEGAL FIGHT FACT - Himber pleaded guilty in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, before U.S. District Judge Loren L. AliKhan, to a single felony count of civil disorder. FACT - Judge AliKhan sentenced him to four months in prison, 36 months of probation, and $2,000 in restitution (DOJ; WWL-TV; Law and Crime). Four months is at the very low end of the January 6 felony range. FACT - On January 20, 2025, his covered conviction received a full and unconditional pardon under the presidential January 6 clemency proclamation. Charles Tyler Himber is a pardoned January 6 defendant. A young man from a Louisiana lakefront suburb, one felony count, four months, and a presidential pardon. That is the whole legal story, start to finish.
