Archive card · not a photograph

John Dine is a 59-year-old man from Illinois, charged by the federal government more than three years after the day prosecutors say he spent inside the U.S. Capitol. John Dine was charged by information on May 29, 2024, for events the government says happened January 6, 2021, more than three years earlier. He pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts: Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building and Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building. Other charges against him were dismissed as part of the plea. On November 1, 2024, a judge in Washington, D.C. sentenced John Dine to 12 months probation, a $20 special assessment, a $500 fine, and $500 in restitution. No prison time, no felony conviction. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted John Dine a full pardon covering his January 6 case. A 59-year-old man from Illinois, two misdemeanor pleas, probation instead of prison, and a pardon from the President of the United States.
