Jacob Therres is a young man from Fallston, Maryland whose January 6 case ended with a full pardon after real federal time served. FACT: Therres was arrested November 14, 2022 in connection with events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. He was 25 years old at the time of arrest. CHARGE ONLY / NEEDS AUTHENTICATION: Prosecutors alleged Therres threw a plank of wood that struck an officer and used chemical spray during the riot. These were the government's allegations, entered into the record through his own guilty plea to one count. FACT: Therres pleaded guilty to Assaulting, Resisting, or Impeding Certain Officers Using a Dangerous Weapon. The remaining charges, including Civil Disorder, were dismissed. FACT: He was sentenced April 24, 2023 to 40 months incarceration, 36 months supervised release, and $2,000 restitution. FACT: On January 20, 2025, Jacob Therres received a full and unconditional pardon. DOCUMENTED INFERENCE: News coverage of Maryland's January 6 cases notes Therres appeared in photos and videos alongside a man believed to be his stepfather, who was separately charged. That stepfather's case outcome is not confirmed in the sources reviewed for this profile and is not stated here. RYAN STATEMENT: Forty months is real time. He served part of it, and then the President of the United States signed his name to a pardon. Whatever anyone believes about what happened in that tunnel, the sentence has been served and the record now shows a full pardon. That is the current state of the law, and this archive reports the current state of the law. This is the record. Read it. Share it. Put eyes on the record. CASE RECORD: Case No. 1:22-cr-381, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested November 14, 2022. Sentenced April 24, 2023. Full pardon January 20, 2025. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
