Patricia Marie Wills

January 6 defendant

Documented editorial-use image

Patricia Marie Wills spent her career on the national security side of the house, an Indiana woman who held a U.S. Department of Defense secret security clearance. That clearance is not a small thing. You do not get one handed to you. A DoD secret clearance means the federal government ran a background investigation on Patricia Wills and decided she could be trusted with the nation's classified material. She worked as a government contractor in that world, out of Indiana. (FACT: WUSA9) She was arrested in Indianapolis, Indiana on the four misdemeanor counts that became the standard charging package in Capitol cases: entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building. (FACT: WUSA9) Investigators alleged she entered through the Senate Wing Door and walked through the Crypt, the Hall of Columns and the Capitol Visitor Center. Those are allegations from charging documents. Charging documents are allegations, not findings. (FACT: charging documents as reported by WUSA9) Patricia Marie Wills is charged with misdemeanors. Not a single count of violence. Not a single count involving a weapon. The legal fight and the cost. Before any court ruled on anything, the referral to the FBI came from a senior manager at the contracting firm where she worked. For someone whose livelihood was built on a security clearance, the professional consequences arrived long ahead of any verdict. On January 20, 2025, the presidential clemency proclamation reached the January 6 cases, including the misdemeanor Capitol cases. If you know Patricia Wills of Indiana and you can add her service history, her trade, or her side of it, this archive wants it.
