Oath Keepers Case Dismissed by Judge | San Francisco News
Description
A federal judge has dismissed the seditious conspiracy case against Oath Keepers, effectively ending one of the last major prosecutions from January 6. Judge Amit Mehta, while expressing deep concern over the government’s move to absolve defendants of crimes against the U.S., had no choice but to follow DOJ’s decision to vacate convictions — a reversal from the Biden administration’s earlier support for the verdicts. The ruling, which also echoes former President Trump’s push for national reconciliation and his order to review hundreds of related cases, marks the end of legal accountability for the Capitol attack. With Stewart Rhodes already released after a commuted sentence and maintaining his innocence, the judge declared the chapter closed — a decision that critics say undermines justice and diminishes the gravity of the day’s events.
