Michael Thomas Curzio is a Summerfield, Florida man convicted on a single misdemeanor count for his actions at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. This is a record where the public facts do not support a warm story, and this profile stays with what the court record and prosecutors' own filings actually say. Here's what the record shows. Curzio was arrested January 14, 2021, one of the earliest arrests in the entire January 6 caseload. Prosecutors allege he was with a group inside the Capitol that did not comply with police orders to leave, and that he wore a gas mask inside the building. He is quoted as saying afterward, "Our point was made yesterday. I have no regrets about anything." THEIR ACCOUNT, his own alleged words. Federal prosecutors also stated, in sentencing filings, that Curzio had previously served eight years in Florida prison for attempted first-degree murder, was released in 2019, and was a member of a violent prison gang while incarcerated. THEIR ACCOUNT, prosecutors' characterization in a court filing, not an independent finding of fact by this archive. He pleaded guilty to one count, parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building; the other charges were dismissed. On July 12, 2021, he was sentenced to six months of incarceration and $500 in restitution. FACT, per the court docket. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted Curzio a full pardon covering the January 6 prosecutions. FACT. That pardon and the presumption of innocence on every charge that was dismissed apply here the same as they apply to every name in this archive, regardless of what else is in the file.
