Judge tosses remaining Jan. 6 Proud Boys convictions after DOJ request

A federal judge has overturned the remaining convictions against four Proud Boys members following a request from the Department of Justice. This decision comes after President Donald Trump issued pardons for many January 6 cases in January 2025. The move signals a significant shift in how these post-pardon cases are being handled, potentially impacting future legal proceedings related to the Capitol riot. The ruling underscores the complex interplay between executive pardons and judicial processes in high-profile political cases.
