Matthew Ryan Miller
Pardoned January 6 defendant
Documented editorial-use imageMatthew Ryan Miller — Cooksville, Maryland. Matthew was just 23 years old on January 6, 2021. A young man from Howard County, Maryland. FACT (court record): Matthew pleaded guilty to assaulting law enforcement and obstruction. On May 23, 2022, Judge Randolph Moss sentenced him to 33 months in prison, 24 months of supervised release, $2,000 restitution, and 100 hours of community service. The record is the record, and charges are charges. FACT worth sitting with: At sentencing, the judge went below the prosecution recommendation. Reporting noted Judge Moss said he was moved by Matthew's own statement, by his youth, and by the fact that he had complied on pretrial release. A young man owned his moment in front of the court, and it registered. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency to January 6 defendants. Matthew was 23. People grow. This page holds room for the man he is becoming, not only the day he was arrested.
