Louis Enrique Colon is a Blue Springs, Missouri man who stood with the Proud Boys on January 6, then stood up and took responsibility for it. Court records show Colon was arrested February 11, 2021, indicted February 26, 2021, and pleaded not guilty at arraignment. On April 27, 2022, he changed his plea to guilty. Reporting from The Washington Post and Kansas City's KCTV5 says Colon's guilty plea came as part of a cooperation deal with federal investigators in the wider Proud Boys case. Yahoo News reported the outcome plainly: a former KC-area Proud Boy who aided investigators got probation, not prison. Louis Colon's case shows what happens when a man cooperates instead of fighting to the bitter end. He is a free man today. CASE RECORD Case No. 1:21-cr-160. U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Arrested 2/11/21. Pleaded guilty 4/27/22. Sentenced to probation. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you, or your family, claiming it is free, forever.
