Edward Rodriguez
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Documented editorial-use imageEdward Francisco Rodriguez is a Brooklyn man — a New Yorker whose January 6 case ran from a summer 2021 arrest all the way to a presidential pardon. FACT: Edward Rodriguez was arrested July 9, 2021, and indicted July 21, 2021, on charges including assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers. The court record describes him deploying bear-deterrent spray toward police lines outside the Capitol on January 6, 2021. FACT: In October 2023 he was sentenced to 36 months in prison and 36 months of supervised release on the felony assault count. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump's clemency proclamation covering January 6 defendants ended the case — Edward Rodriguez received a full pardon and his sentence was over. He was in his mid-20s when this case began. He is a free man today, back home in Brooklyn, New York, with the case behind him.
