Paul Marvin Nowell of Wendell, North Carolina was charged once and convicted never. That is the whole legal story, and it deserves to be the first thing anyone reads. FACT: Paul Marvin Nowell was 44 and living in Wendell, North Carolina when he was arrested there on July 31, 2024. That is three and a half years after January 6, 2021. CHARGE ONLY: He was charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers. That is an allegation and nothing more. Paul Marvin Nowell is presumed innocent of it. He never pleaded guilty to it. No jury ever heard it. No judge ever ruled on it. FACT: On January 22, 2025, two days after the January 20, 2025 clemency, the court granted the government's motion to dismiss the case WITH PREJUDICE. With prejudice means the government cannot bring it back. Ever. FACT: Paul Marvin Nowell has no conviction out of January 6. NEEDS AUTHENTICATION: His trade, his employer, any military or first responder service, his church and his family in Wendell, North Carolina are not in any source we can cite yet. A man carries more than one charging document, and this page is built to hold the rest.
