FACT: he pleaded guilty to one charge, Entering and Remaining in a Restricted Building or Grounds, and a sentencing date was set for April 21, 2025. That sentencing never happened. FACT: on January 22, 2025, the court granted the government's own motion to dismiss the case with prejudice, closing it permanently before Smith was ever sentenced.

What's confirmed by the court record: he was charged, he entered a guilty plea, and the case ended without a sentence when the government dropped it.
