Cole Andrew Temple is a Toledo, Ohio man whose January 6 case was four misdemeanors, start to finish. Not one felony ever appeared on it. That matters, and it is the first thing anyone landing on this page should know. The Justice Department's own defendant record for Cole Andrew Temple lists four counts: knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building. Every one a misdemeanor. No assault. No weapon. No conspiracy. (FACT, DOJ defendant record) HIS LEGAL FIGHT. Temple was arrested in Toledo, Ohio on August 19, 2021, and his initial appearance was held August 25, 2021. The government filed an information on July 15, 2022, and he pleaded guilty on October 5, 2022. The matter began as 1:21-mj-568 and was docketed as 1:22-cr-243. (FACT, DOJ defendant record) On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering the January 6 prosecutions. (FACT) CASE RECORD, as preserved from the DOJ Capitol Breach list this archive mirrored after the government scrubbed it from justice.gov: Case 1:22-cr-243, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Location of arrest: Toledo, Ohio. DOJ record last updated October 7, 2022. Charges are charges. Nothing on this page states guilt beyond the court record. Past the docket, the public record on Cole Andrew Temple is thin. No interview, no feature, no hometown profile. A four count misdemeanor case out of Toledo, Ohio does not make the evening news, and a man is not a docket number. If you are Cole Andrew Temple, or his family, the story is still yours to tell and this page is still yours to take. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
