Pardoned Rioter Admits Guilt in Child Abuse Case
David Daniel, a Jan. 6 rioter who received a presidential pardon, will plead guilty in a separate child exploitation case. Court documents reveal Daniel enticed minors to engage in sexually explicit conduct for the purpose of producing visual depictions of the acts. A judge has ruled that the Jan. 6 pardon does not cover these child exploitation charges, distinguishing them from conduct related to the Capitol attack. This case follows similar instances where other pardoned Jan. 6 defendants have faced convictions for unrelated crimes, including child sexual abuse.
