Ulises Wilkinson

Ulises Wilkinson, of McAllen, Texas, flew to Washington, D.C. the day before the riot, climbed the inauguration stage scaffolding, and followed the crowd through a breached door into the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot before exiting through the Senate chamber; he was identified after an FBI source submitted social media images and videos showing him inside the building, and told investigators he had seen officers being attacked but did not engage in violence, and that he had declined an invitation to join the Proud Boys. He pleaded guilty to two charges, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building or grounds and parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building, with other charges, including entering a restricted building and entering the gallery of Congress, dismissed. He was sentenced on 6/28/2024 to 12 months of probation, a $20 special assessment, $500 in restitution, and 40 hours of community service.
