Anna Lichnowski

Anna Lichnowski, 37, posted photos on Facebook of herself inside the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot and, though she later deleted them, continued talking about taking part in the insurrection, spending about 30 minutes inside before leaving; a tipster's call to the FBI led to her arrest on 7/25/2023. She pleaded not guilty to all charges; following a three-day bench trial, U.S. District Judge Reggie B. Walton found her guilty on all counts on 7/10/2024, including trespassing, disorderly conduct, and parading in the Capitol. A last-ditch effort by her legal team to delay sentencing so she could seek a presidential pardon was denied, with the judge writing that the possibility of future clemency was irrelevant to the court's obligations. She was sentenced on 11/8/2024 to 45 days of incarceration, 3 years of probation with 3 years of supervised release, 200 hours of community service, a $2,500 fine, $500 in restitution, and a $70 special assessment.
