Tiny Needs to Talk About This Jan6 Pardon More
One of the Jan 6 pardons is for a person who lives in Jessiah's backyard: North Carolina. His name is David Daniel. Here is a link to the original arrest for his Jan 6 riot. He was discovered via social media pictures and because of that convenient picture where he was looking directly at a camera as he breached the Capitol.
However, when they arrested him for January 6th, they also noticed that they had allegations of child molestation and devices related to that were seized previously but not searched. Using January 6th as probable cause to search his electronic devices, they found his manufactured CSM and he was rearrested in 2024.. Here is the indictment.
In January 2025, we reelected the stupidest person in American history, and because of that every January 6th rioter was pardoned, including Daniel. It is worth noting that Daniel had already been charged for the CSM and molestation prior to his pardon, meaning Donald Trump either knew he was pardoning a child sex offender, or him and his administration didn't even do the due diligence to check who they were pardoning (more likely this).
One interesting tidbit about this, is that a situation like this really hasn't ever occurred in American history. And so now Daniel is claiming that the evidence found is fruit of the poisonous tree. In March of 2025, Daniel's defense officially filed a motion to dismiss and suppress evidence based on this assertion, and the argument isn't entirely uncompelling I don't think (even though he definitely should rot in prison for the rest of his life). There certainly were other cases already where defendants of Gen 6 had been found to have committed other crimes and those charges were then dropped along with the jan6 charges.
Luckily, in January of 2026, the judge ruled against the defenses argument of fruit of the poisonous tree. The evidence will be allowed in the trial and the case is not dismissed. However, I'm quite sure he would appeal this decision once he is convicted, and so we'll see actual case law on an unprecedented event like this: if you are pardoned of a crime, can evidence in the search related to the pardoned crime be used in another case.
Either way, I don't see how any of these clowns in media and maga in general who pretend to care about victims and kids and all of that can even show their faces while supporting this administration knowing they pardoned a guy who molested kids and manufactured CSM from it.
