Katharine Hallock Morrison
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Katharine Hallock Morrison is from Dansville, a small town in Livingston County, New York, and she carried one of the heavier cases in this whole archive. FACT: court records allege surveillance footage showed Morrison inside the Capitol on January 6, 2021, wearing a distinctive grey-green helmet, and that she was later added to an existing multi-defendant indictment. FACT: she was arrested February 10, 2022, and charged with obstruction of an official proceeding along with several lesser counts. Katharine Morrison pleaded guilty to the obstruction charge, a felony. The other counts against her were dismissed. FACT: the court sentenced her on May 11, 2023 to 8 months of incarceration, followed by 8 months of home detention and 24 months of supervised release, plus restitution. That's a real sentence. She served it. FACT: on January 20, 2025, Katharine Hallock Morrison received a full pardon from President Trump, closing a case that had cost her months of her life. There isn't much public reporting on who Katharine Morrison is outside this case, no interviews, no profile pieces on her family or her work in Dansville. What's here is the court record, and the record says she was charged, she pleaded guilty to one felony, she served her sentence in full, and she was pardoned by the President by name. What this doesn't prove: it doesn't establish her occupation, her family, or her life in Dansville before or since. What it does prove: an 8-month federal sentence, fully served, followed by a full and unconditional pardon. CASE RECORD Case No. 1:21-cr-334, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested February 10, 2022. Pleaded guilty to Obstruction of an Official Proceeding. Sentenced May 11, 2023 to 8 months incarceration, 8 months home detention, 24 months supervised release, $2,000 restitution. Full pardon January 20, 2025. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
