Jared Lane Wise spent his career inside the FBI. He rose to supervisory special agent. Then he stood on the other side of the table. FACT: Jared Lane Wise is a former FBI supervisory special agent. Multiple outlets confirm the rank, including OPB, KGW, CBS News and Fox News. FACT: Wise was living in Bend, Oregon when he was arrested and charged in 2023 over his conduct at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Source: OPB, Central Oregon Daily. FACT: Jared Lane Wise also has roots in New Braunfels, Texas. Local coverage there tracked his case toward trial. Source: New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung. THEIR ACCOUNT: Wise has said publicly that police used excessive force on January 6 and that attempting to stop it would have been morally justified. He said it plainly and on the record. Source: WUSA9. Think about what that takes. A career federal agent saying out loud that he watched officers cross a line. He did not soften it. FACT: Following the January 20, 2025 clemency covering January 6 cases, Jared Lane Wise was reported to be serving on the Justice Department working group examining the weaponization of the federal government. Source: KGW. That is the arc. FBI supervisor. Defendant. Then seated at a Justice Department table looking at how the machine works from the inside. CHARGE ONLY: every allegation brought against Jared Lane Wise in the District of Columbia was an allegation. He is presumed innocent of anything never proven at trial, and the January 20, 2025 clemency ended the January 6 prosecutions. CASE RECORD Court: U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Charged: 2023 Hometown at time of arrest: Bend, Oregon Case number: NEEDS AUTHENTICATION.
