Dear John,
On his first day in office, President Trump pardoned or commuted the sentences of over 1,500 people convicted of crimes related to the insurrection on January 6, 2021.
Of those people, about 600 were charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding law enforcement officers, with almost 175 accused of doing so with deadly or dangerous weapons such as baseball bats, two-by-fours, crutches, hockey sticks, and broken wooden table legs.
Among those violent criminals who have been released into communities in America are:
Steven Cappuccio, a felon who violently beat a police officer stuck in a door.
DJ Rodriguez, who tased a police officer so many times he suffered a heart attack.
David Dempsey, whose attacks on police officers included beating them with a flagpole and spraying their faces with pepper spray.
