Dominick Madden is a New York City man from Brooklyn — and, at the time, a worker for the NYC Department of Sanitation. A guy who kept the city running. FACT: Video shows he entered the Capitol through the Senate Wing door on January 6 and was inside for about 12 minutes. He was not charged with any assault. He pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor — parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building. (Government sentencing memo, No. 21-cr-55; Brooklyn Eagle) That is the whole of the court record: a working New Yorker who walked in, walked out, and pleaded to a petty offense. FACT: The January 20, 2025 clemency proclamation covered January 6 defendants. There is more to Dominick than twelve minutes on one day. If you know him, help tell it. Case record: United States v. Madden, No. 1:21-cr-55, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Pleaded guilty to parading/demonstrating/picketing. Sentenced to 20 days and $500 restitution. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you — or your family — claiming it is free, forever.
