'Nearly 100 Trump-Pardoned MAGA Insurrectionists Have Been Charged With Other Crimes: Analysis'

"An analysis published Thursday by Lawfare associate editor Katherine Pompilio finds that at least 97 of these pardoned Trump supporters have been charged with other crimes, including serious alleged offenses such as grand larceny, fraud, and plots to assassinate law enforcement officials and politicians."

"The analysis also documents 14 instances of pardoned Capitol rioters being 'charged with sex crimes or crimes related to child sexual abuse material (CSAM),' while 'at least six' have been charged with domestic violence."

"Some of the pardoned rioters have been charged with more minor offenses, including public intoxication, possession of drug paraphernalia, and property damage."

"The most notable finding is that at least five of the repeat offenders committed crimes after being freed from prison as a result of Trump’s actions, suggesting that his pardon 'may have actively facilitated criminal conduct.' "
