Jenny Louise Cudd
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Documented editorial-use imageJenny Louise Cudd is a West Texas small business owner. She owns Becky's Flowers in Midland, Texas, and she ran for mayor of Midland in 2019. Flowers. Payroll. A storefront in the oil patch. That is who she was before January 6, 2021, and that is who she still is. Midland is not a place that hands you anything. You build it or you do not eat. Jenny Louise Cudd built a flower shop in a town that runs on rigs and grit, then put her name on a mayoral ballot in front of every neighbor she had. That takes a spine. WHAT THE RECORD SHOWS FACT: She owns Becky's Flowers in Midland, Texas, per NewsWest 9, NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth, and CBS Texas. FACT: She was a candidate for Midland mayor in 2019, per Fox News and the Laredo Morning Times. FACT: She was arrested January 13, 2021 and charged in the District of Columbia. FACT: She asked the court to move her trial to Texas. The Washington Post reported the request on March 10, 2021. FACT: She pleaded guilty on October 13, 2021 to count 2. WUSA9 reported it was the 100th guilty plea entered in the Capitol riot cases. FACT: She was sentenced March 22, 2022 to two months of probation, a $5,000 fine, and $500 restitution. No jail. Courthouse News and NewsWest 9 both reported it. THEIR ACCOUNT: Jenny Louise Cudd has given interviews telling her own side, including to San Angelo LIVE in July 2022. She has never gone quiet and she has never let other people be the only voice on her record. THE LEGAL FIGHT Charges, per the DOJ record: Obstruction of an Official Proceeding; Entering and Remaining in a Restricted Building or Grounds; Disorderly and Disruptive Conduct in a Restricted Building or Grounds; Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building; Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building; Aiding and Abetting. She was arraigned February 16, 2021 and pleaded not guilty to all counts. Status conferences ran through 2021. She pleaded guilty to one count and got probation and a fine. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering the January 6 prosecutions. WHAT THIS DOES NOT PROVE: The obstruction count and the other counts in the indictment were never tried. She pleaded to one. Everything else is a charge, and a charge is not a verdict. THE CASE RECORD Case 1:21-cr-68, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested 1/13/21. Initial appearance 1/21/21. Indicted 2/3/21. Arraigned 2/16/21. Plea hearing 10/13/21.
