Cory Konold was 28 years old and living in Tucson, Arizona when his life collided with January 6. He didn't go to Washington alone. He went with his sister, Felicia, two siblings from Arizona who drove into a day that would follow both of them home. (FACT, Tucson.com; DOJ) Here is what we can say plainly: the government charged Cory, and he chose to take responsibility. He pleaded guilty to a single felony count of obstructing officers during a civil disorder, and was sentenced to 30 days and 24 months of supervised release. The police helmet he had carried out was returned, a family member turned it over at his direction. (FACT, DOJ; Tucson.com) On January 20, 2025, President Trump's clemency proclamation reached the Konold siblings along with the rest of the January 6 cases. (FACT, Tucson.com) Cory is not a headline. He is a young man from Tucson who stood next to his sister on the worst day and has been carrying it ever since. THE RECORD (charges are charges): Case No. 1:21-cr-160, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested 2/11/2021. Pleaded guilty; sentenced to 30 days incarceration and 24 months supervised release. DOJ file: justice.gov/usao-dc/defendants/konold-cory This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
