Documented editorial-use image

Jonathan David Grace is a Colorado Springs man who did not drag anyone through a trial. He pleaded guilty, took the sentence, served it, and came home.

[FACT: U.S. Department of Justice; The Colorado Sun.] The government's account of his conduct in the Lower West Terrace Tunnel is set out in the court documents linked below.

Walton sentenced him to 24 months in prison, 3 years of supervised release, a $5,000 fine and $2,000 in restitution.

WHAT THIS ARCHIVE STILL NEEDS No occupation, service record, family coverage or support page for Jonathan David Grace has been verified, and no self published social account has been identity matched. Colorado Springs is a service town, and right now this page holds nothing that shows who Grace is outside of one day in 2021. If that is wrong, help us fix it. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
