Judge Blocks Trump Pardon for Pipe Bomb Suspect | Lubbock News
Description
A federal judge ruled that President Trump’s mass pardons for January 6 rioters don’t cover Brian Cole Jr., who planted pipe bombs near RNC and DNC headquarters the night before the Capitol riot. Cole, not charged during Trump’s pardon wave, was arrested nearly a year later. Prosecutors say he confessed to being swept up in election conspiracies, backed by phone records and other evidence. The judge, nominated by Biden, clarified the pardons only applied to those convicted of crimes directly tied to the Capitol riot — leaving Cole’s case to proceed. He’s back in court this Wednesday for a status update.
