Jeffrey Grace
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Documented editorial-use imageJeffrey Grace is a U.S. Army veteran and father from Battle Ground, Washington. He wore his country's uniform, then built a quiet life in southwest Washington. On January 6, 2021, Jeff drove to Washington, D.C. with his adult son to hear President Trump speak, father and son, side by side. After the rally he walked to the Capitol and stepped inside through a door that was already open. He was in the building only briefly. He carried no weapon and was never accused of any act of violence. The legal fight: Jeffrey Grace was arrested February 4, 2021 and charged by criminal information. He pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor count of entering and remaining in a restricted building. In 2023 a federal judge sentenced him, then 64 years old, to 75 days. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants. An Army veteran in his sixties who went to D.C. with his son and walked through an open door, that is the man behind the case number. Case record: United States v. Jeffrey Grace, No. 1:21-cr-296, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested February 4, 2021. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
