Sean Carlo Cordon
January 6 defendant
Sean Carlo Cordon is a Los Angeles man who went to Washington with his brother. Two brothers. One trip. One case. A Finnish news crew filmed the crowd, and a viewer in Finland recognized them and called it in. That is how the FBI found two men from Southern California. A tip from across an ocean. WHO HE IS FACT: Sean Carlo Cordon is from the Los Angeles area of California. The Los Angeles Times, the Long Beach Press Telegram, NBC Los Angeles, and Raw Story covered him as a Southern California man. FACT: He was arrested alongside his brother, Kevin Francisco Cordon. Law and Crime covered both brothers entering guilty pleas in the same case. FACT: The brothers were identified after appearing in a Finnish television news video. The Los Angeles Times and Yahoo News reported that the tip came from Finland. THE LEGAL FIGHT FACT: Arrested March 9, 2021. Initial appearance March 16, 2021. Charged via criminal information April 1, 2021. FACT: Arraigned May 18, 2021 and pleaded not guilty to all counts. Plea agreement entered August 27, 2021. CHARGE ONLY, per the DOJ record: 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; Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building. Every count was a misdemeanor. FACT: On November 12, 2021 Sean Carlo Cordon was sentenced to 2 months probation, a $4,000 fine, and $500 restitution. FACT: Two months probation. No jail. That is what the court decided this was. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump granted clemency covering the January 6 prosecutions. WHAT THIS DOES NOT PROVE It does not prove he should not have been charged. He entered a plea and the plea stands. WHAT IT DOES PROVE Sean Carlo Cordon was charged with four misdemeanors and sentenced to two months of probation. That is the smallest end of the entire January 6 docket. Anyone who lumps this Los Angeles man in with the felony assault cases is not reading the record. Show me the evidence. It is right here, and it says probation.
