Connie Meggs is a wife and mother from Dunnellon, Florida. (FACT.) She traveled to Washington on January 6, 2021 with her husband, Kelly. At her sentencing she told the court, plainly, that she never would have gone inside the Capitol if she had not been following him. (THEIR ACCOUNT: WUSA9, Newsweek.) FACT: A District of Columbia jury convicted her in 2023 of conspiracy and related felony counts, and she was sentenced to 15 months. She served her time. Then, on January 20, 2025, President Trump granted her clemency along with other January 6 defendants. (FACT.) A mother who followed her husband into a day that cost her family dearly — and who owned her part of it in open court. There is more to Connie than a verdict line. Case record: 1:21-cr-28, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Multiple superseding indictments 2021-2022.
