John Flanagan

January 6 defendant

Archive card · not a photograph

John Flanagan is a Kentucky man whose January 6, 2021 case was resolved by a guilty plea to two misdemeanor-level counts, filed alongside a companion case against Sarah Flanagan under the same docket number in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Here is the entire universe of the record on John Flanagan: entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, and disorderly conduct in a Capitol Building or Grounds, along with parading. No assault. No civil disorder. No weapon. The statement of offense filed with the court in May 2024 sets out the government's factual basis for the plea and nothing beyond it, and that document is the primary source for everything stated here. What the public record reviewed for this page does not include is a hometown city, an age, an occupation, or any personal detail beyond the charges and the plea. Searches of Kentucky and national news coverage for "John Flanagan" turned up numerous unrelated people of the same fairly common name, and this profile has held to the strict standard of matching only what the case number itself, 24-CR-185, confirms. Where the record runs out, this page says so instead of guessing. That caution matters more here than most places. A common name attached to a low-level misdemeanor plea is exactly the kind of case where an unclaimed profile could accidentally smear the wrong person entirely. Nothing here goes beyond what the federal court filing itself states in Flanagan's own case number. Given the misdemeanor-only nature of the plea, this case would very likely have been resolved through sentencing well before January 20, 2025, when President Trump's clemency proclamation covered convictions tied to January 6. Whether Flanagan received an individual pardon on that date, or had already completed a probationary sentence beforehand, has not been separately confirmed and is marked below.
