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.
