Micah Coomer is a United States Marine, an active-duty intelligence Marine who was still wearing the uniform when his January 6 case began. Twenty-something, in the Corps, doing an intelligence job the Marine Corps trusted him with. That is the man behind this docket number. [FACT] HIS SERVICE Micah Coomer was on active duty in the United States Marine Corps at the time of his case, one of three active-duty Marines charged over January 6. [FACT, reported by NPR, CBS News, The Washington Post and Marine Corps Times.] He and two fellow Marines traveled from their post to attend the rally in Washington on January 6, 2021. [FACT] He worked in the intelligence field. [FACT] Every day he served is a day the country got out of him, and that does not disappear because of a misdemeanor. THE LEGAL FIGHT The record, plainly. [FACT, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, case 1:23-mj-14.] Complaint filed January 17, 2023. Micah Coomer pleaded guilty in May 2023 to a single misdemeanor count of parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building. [FACT, Washington Post and Marine Corps Times reporting.] Reporting at the time noted he was the first active-duty service member convicted in connection with January 6.
