Dane Christoffer Thompson is from Granite Bay, California — 45 years old when the FBI arrested him in November 2024, nearly four years after January 6. [FACT / news reporting] The government alleges that on January 6, 2021, Thompson pulled a bike-rack barrier away from an officer at the police line. He was charged with felony assault and civil disorder. These are charges, not a verdict — his case was in its earliest stages when the political landscape shifted. [FACT — court record] On January 20, 2025, President Trump's clemency for January 6 defendants reached cases still pending, including new arrests like Thompson's, and the prosecutions were wound down. [FACT — NEEDS AUTHENTICATION for the specific disposition of his case] Arrested late, never tried, and entitled to the presumption every American gets. The record: charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers and civil disorder; arrested November 22, 2024, in California; case resolved amid the January 20, 2025 clemency. U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you — or your family — claiming it is free, forever.
