Defense attorney David Fischer said he informed Caldwell of the pardon on Monday after learning about it from news reports.맥스카지노�And he's elated,맥스카지노� Fischer added.A jury convicted Caldwell of obstructing Congress and of obstructing justice for tampering with documents after the riot. One of those convictions was dismissed in light of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year.On Jan. 10, U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta sentenced Caldwell to time served with no supervised release. Prosecutors had recommended four years in prison for Caldwell.Ten days later, on his first day back in the White House, Trump issued a sweeping grant of clemency to all 1,500-plus people charged in the Capitol riot.

The weapons were never deployed, and lawyers for the Oath Keepers said they were only there for defensive purposes in case of attacks from left-wing activists.But Caldwell, who didn맥스카지노�t enter the Capitol, took the witness stand and down played messages he sent leading up to Jan. 6, including one floating the idea about getting a boat to ferry 맥스카지노�heavy weapons맥스카지노� across the Potomac River. Caldwell said he was never serious about it, calling it 맥스카지노�creative writing.맥스카지노�Fischer said his client was 맥스카지노�first among equals for a pardon.맥스카지노�맥스카지노�When a progressive D.C. jury acquits him of most of the charges and an Obama-appointed judge sentences him to basically time served and a fine, I think it맥스카지노�s safe to say the government got it wrong,맥스카지노� the attorney said.___Associated Press writer Alanna Durkin Richer contributed to this report.
