Hey Kyle — your J6 Anti-Weaponization Case Builder profile is ready to be claimed.

The record, so far

Kyle Young owned what he did. In open court, he cried, and he apologized. We publish the record straight, and this record is heavy. FACT: Young, 38, of Redfield, Iowa, pleaded guilty on May 5, 2022 to assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers. He did not make the government prove it. He admitted it. FACT: On September 27, 2022, U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson sentenced him to 86 months in prison, three years of supervised release, and $2,000 in restitution. She called him "a one man wrecking ball that day" and one of the most serious January 6 offenders on her docket. (DOJ; KCRG; Axios) FACT: The conduct he admitted to included holding a strobe light toward the police line, pushing a stick-like object forward, assisting in throwing a large audio speaker toward officers, and grabbing an MPD officer's wrist and pulling the officer's arm away from his body. (DOJ) We are not going to dress that up. Officers were hurt that day and that matters. FACT: He cried as he apologized at his sentencing. (We Are Iowa) That counts for something. A man who stands up in federal court, in front of the judge who is about to take seven years from him, and says he was wrong — that is not nothing. Plenty of men never manage it. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump issued a pardon covering his conviction as part of the clemency action for January 6 offenses. He had served roughly two and a half years. He is an Iowan. He is a father. He served his time and he came home. If you know the rest of his story — the work, the family, the years since — this archive would rather carry that than only the worst day of his life.
