Kevin Michael Alstrup

January 6 defendant

Documented editorial-use image

Kevin Michael Alstrup spent his career in federal law enforcement, as a Diplomatic Security Service officer protecting American diplomats and embassy personnel around the world for the U.S. State Department. He is 42 years old. That is not a small thing to put at the top of a record like this, and we are putting it there on purpose. Men and women in that job take posts most Americans never hear about, guarding people this country sends into places most of us will never go. Alstrup did that work before federal agents ever knocked on his own door. The charges against him were misdemeanors, not felonies: entering a restricted building, disorderly conduct in a restricted building, disorderly conduct in the Capitol, and parading in the Capitol. No weapon. No assault. He pleaded guilty to two of the four counts, disorderly conduct in the Capitol and parading, with sentencing set for February 12, 2025. That sentencing never happened. On January 21, 2025, the court granted the government's own motion to dismiss the entire case against Kevin Alstrup with prejudice, before he was ever sentenced on the counts he had pleaded to. The case is closed, for good, with no sentence on the books. THE RECORD Name: Kevin Michael Alstrup Background: Federal law enforcement officer, U.S. State Department Diplomatic Security Service Charges: Entering and Remaining in a Restricted Building or Grounds; Disorderly and Disruptive Conduct in a Restricted Building or Grounds; Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building; Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building Plea: Guilty to two of four counts (Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building; Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building) Final outcome: Remaining case dismissed with prejudice by the court, January 21, 2025, before sentencing Sources: Federal charging document; The Washington Post; CNN What this does not prove: it does not erase the guilty plea he entered on two misdemeanor counts. What it does prove: no sentence was ever imposed, and the case ended in a full dismissal with prejudice. A career spent guarding this country's people overseas, and a misdemeanor case that ended with no sentence on the books. Same record. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
