Terry Lynn Lindsey laid brick in Ohio for thirty years and served two enlistments in the United States Army. FACT: Lindsey worked as a bricklayer for three decades in Ohio and is a U.S. Army veteran with two enlistments. He is from Piqua, Ohio, in Miami County. Source: WUSA9 reporting on the sentencing filings in his case. FACT: He is married and helps care for his wife, and at times for his granddaughter. Source: same. Thirty years in the trade. Hands, mortar, level, line. Cold mornings on scaffolding. Terry Lynn Lindsey built things in Ohio that are still standing right now, and they will still be standing long after the news cycle forgets his name. His own attorney did not argue anything fancy at sentencing. He argued the man had worked steadily for thirty years and that a co defendant charged with similar conduct had gotten almost nothing. Fair is fair. Same courthouse, same conduct, same rule. NEEDS AUTHENTICATION: Reporting on the sentencing filings states that Lindsey's Army service ended in a discharge under other than honorable conditions. That characterization comes from court filings and has not been independently verified here. THE LEGAL FIGHT FACT: Arrested February 17, 2021. FACT: Charged by criminal information February 26, 2021. Pleaded not guilty to all counts March 5, 2021. FACT: Pleaded guilty April 5, 2022 to three misdemeanor counts. Misdemeanor is not felony. FACT: Sentenced July 15, 2022 before Chief Judge Beryl A. Howell to five months incarceration, 36 months probation, 60 hours of community service and $500 restitution. Prosecutors had asked for a full year. FACT: On January 20, 2025, President Trump issued clemency covering January 6 defendants. NEEDS AUTHENTICATION: An individual clemency certificate for Terry Lynn Lindsey has not been located in the records reviewed here.
