Josiah Kenyon
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Verified profile photographJosiah Kenyon is a working man from Winnemucca, Nevada, a small high desert town in Humboldt County where people know each other by name. He is a father. He drove across the country and back into the hardest four years of his life. That is the man. Start there. HIS STORY FACT: Josiah Kenyon is from Winnemucca, Nevada. The Las Vegas Review-Journal, This Is Reno, KOLO, and KTNV all identified him as a northern Nevada man from Winnemucca. FACT: He is a father. Family circumstances were raised on the record in his case. HIS FIGHT FACT: Kenyon was arrested December 1, 2021 and indicted December 10, 2021 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. FACT: He pleaded guilty on September 14, 2022. FACT: He was sentenced in April 2023 to roughly six years in federal prison, one of the longer January 6 sentences handed to a Nevadan. The Las Vegas Sun, KOLO, and the Justice Department all reported the sentencing. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering January 6 defendants, including those serving prison terms. WHAT THIS DOES NOT PROVE The record shows charges, a plea, a sentence, and clemency. Nothing in this profile claims more than that.
