The case · United States v. Nichols
1,463 days. Ten facilities. Full presidential pardon. Charges dismissed with prejudice.
Ryan Nichols — United States Marine Corps veteran, founder of Wholesale Universe, Inc. (a multi-million-dollar wholesale/retail company), Texas Search and Rescue specialist, father. Convicted under the previous administration. Pardoned by President Trump on January 20, 2025. Charges dismissed with prejudice by U.S. Attorney Edward R. Martin Jr. — the case cannot be brought again. This is the documented record of what the previous administration did to him in the years between — and what it cost him.
Executive
The Presidential pardon and the Anti-Weaponization Fund originate here.
Judiciary
Federal judges who presided over the case and were the subject of defense motions.
Hon. K. Nicole Mitchell
U.S. Magistrate Judge · U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas
Magistrate judge in the Eastern District of Texas (Tyler Division) who presided over Ryan Nichols's first bond hearing on January 22, 2021 — four days after his arrest. Denied pretrial release. Ryan would not get another bond hearing for almost 11 months. Scan j6s26-004 captures Ryan's handwritten transcription of her ruling.
Hon. Royce C. Lamberth
United States District Judge · U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia
Senior judge presiding over United States v. Nichols. Authored detention orders, sentencing rulings, and several decisions on defense motions.
Hon. Thomas F. Hogan
Senior United States District Judge · U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia
Senior U.S. District Judge for the District of Columbia. Subject of a defense recusal motion; his 1982 Oath of Office attached as an annotated exhibit ("Recusal for Cause NO!!"). Conditioned access to Ryan's December 2021 second bond hearing on Ryan taking the COVID-19 vaccine over Ryan's on-the-record objection. Bond denied at that hearing despite Judge Hogan's own on-record admission that prolonged solitary confinement violated Ryan's due process rights.
Prosecution
Federal prosecutors of record in United States v. Nichols.
AUSA Douglas Brasher
Assistant United States Attorney · U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia
Federal prosecutor of record in United States v. Nichols. Pre-plea, on the record, told the court the government had no idea who "1% Watchdog" was and doubled down that Marcus DiPaola was not a federal agent, not affiliated with the FBI, not affiliated with the feds. A year and a half after Ryan was sentenced, public-record archive surfaced of Marcus DiPaola self-identifying as an FBI Chicago field office informant during the exact years he was inside Ryan's rescue organization. The denial of that disclosure is the Brady violation on the case record.
AUSA Sarah W. Rocha
Assistant United States Attorney · U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia
Co-signed the Government's Opposition (Doc 161), Government Supplement (Doc 169), and Second Supplement (Doc 172) opposing Ryan's Emergency Motion for Pretrial Release in case 1:21-cr-00117-TFH.
Edward R. Martin Jr.
U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia (Trump appointee, 2025) · U.S. Attorney - DC
Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia under the Trump administration. After Ryan Nichols received the January 20, 2025 presidential pardon, U.S. Attorney Martin moved to dismiss the charges in *United States v. Nichols* (1:21-cr-00117-TFH) with prejudice — meaning the case cannot be brought again. The dismissal followed Martin's broader review of January 6 cases.
