Emanuel Jackson is a young Black man from Capitol Heights, Maryland, and when he learned the FBI was looking for him he turned himself in. He walked in. Nobody kicked his door down. FACT, per WUSA9 and CBS News. Capitol Heights, Prince George's County, Maryland. That is home. FACT, per CBS Baltimore. THEIR ACCOUNT: Emanuel Jackson told investigators he was not there for Donald Trump. "I'm not here for Trump," he said. FACT, that is his statement as reported by CBS News and WTOP. Whatever anybody wants to make of January 6, this man said out loud that he was not there for a politician. That is his own account and it belongs on his page. A DUE PROCESS RECEIPT Emanuel Jackson was held before trial while a great many January 6 defendants facing comparable charges were released. That disparity was reported at the time by The Washington Post. FACT, that the reporting exists and describes the disparity. Same courthouse. Same charges. Different outcome at the bail hearing. Put that in the record and let people look at it. He was later released and remained on personal recognizance. FACT, per the DOJ record. THE LEGAL FIGHT Arrested January 19, 2021, initial appearance the same day. Charged by criminal information June 10, 2021. Arraigned August 3, 2021 and pleaded not guilty to counts 1 through 3. Remained on personal recognizance. FACT, per the DOJ record. CHARGE ONLY. Presumed innocent. He pleaded not guilty. No conviction is recorded in this archive for Emanuel Jackson. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering the January 6 prosecutions. FACT, per the White House proclamation. THE CASE RECORD Case 1:21-cr-395, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested 1/19/2021. Criminal information 6/10/2021. Arraigned 8/3/2021, not guilty.
