John Edward Crowley
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Documented editorial-use imageJohn Edward Crowley of Windermere, Florida did the thing most defendants never do: he refused to fold and made the government prove its case at trial. FACT: Crowley traveled from Central Florida to Washington for the January 6, 2021 rally at the Ellipse. FACT: his case went to a bench trial before Judge Trevor N. McFadden, and on October 18, 2023 he was found guilty of civil disorder, a felony, and three misdemeanors. FACT: he was sentenced on January 19, 2024. FACT: on January 20, 2025 — one year and one day after his sentencing — the presidential clemency proclamation granted a full pardon covering January 6 convictions like his. John Crowley, 52 at the time of trial, took the hard road through the federal system and came out the other side with his case closed for good. Windermere is still home. CASE RECORD Case No. 1:22-mj-184 (complaint), U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested August 24, 2022; bench trial verdict October 18, 2023; sentenced January 19, 2024; pardoned January 20, 2025. DOJ defendant page linked in the sources. This profile is unclaimed.
