Riley June Williams is one of the 1,571 January 6 defendants indexed in this archive — preserved from the DOJ Capitol Breach case list this site mirrored after the government scrubbed it from justice.gov. Case 1:21-cr-618 — U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Charges, per the DOJ record: Knowingly Entering or Remaining in any Restricted Building or Grounds Without Lawful Authority; Violent Entry and Disorderly Conduct on Capitol Grounds. The docket, as recorded: Arrested 1/18/21. Initial appearance held 1/25/21. Indicted 10/6/21. Found guilty by jury on 11/21/22 of interfering with law enforcement officers during a civil disorder, and resisting or impeding law enforcement officers, both felonies, as well as four related misdemeanor offenses: entering and 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. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on two other charges, including obstruction of an official proceeding and aiding and abetting in the theft of government property. On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering the January 6 prosecutions. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you — or your family — claiming it is free, forever.
