Aaron James Mileur

Aaron James Mileur, of Wasilla, Alaska, was the first person arrested in Alaska in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot, with FBI agents taking him into custody on 3/15/2021. He pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building, with other charges dismissed. He was sentenced on 3/20/2023 to 24 months of probation, 30 days of location monitoring, 60 hours of community service, $500 in restitution, and a $10 special assessment; as a condition of probation he was barred from possessing firearms, which led him to unsuccessfully ask the court to modify that condition days later so he could defend his property against a moose he had seen in his yard.
