January 6 defendant

Archive card · not a photograph

Walter Joseph Wentland is from Sparrow Bush, New York, a small community in Orange County in the Hudson Valley. He was charged in December 2024, three years after January 6, 2021, with a felony and four misdemeanors tied to the Capitol breach. He never had his day in court. On January 21, 2025, the day after President Trump's clemency proclamation, the government moved to dismiss the case against Walter Wentland with prejudice. That means it is over. No trial. No conviction. No guilty plea. The record shows a case that was filed and then closed. Walter Joseph Wentland is one of at least fourteen Hudson Valley residents whose January 6 cases ended the same way, with a presidential pardon and a dismissal instead of a trial. CASE RECORD No case number on file. U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Charged 12/12/24 with obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder (felony) and four related misdemeanors. Case dismissed with prejudice, 1/21/25, following presidential clemency.
