President Donald Trump issued a "full and unconditional" pardon to a Kentucky man who pleaded guilty to felony conspiracy for his actions on the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol and to unrelated federal firearms charges.

Trump quietly issued the pardon Nov. 14, according to multiple reports. The Justice Department has not announced the pardon on its website as of Nov. 15.

Dan Wilson was sentenced in 2024 to five years in prison, three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution for his actions related to the Capitol attack. The Justice Department said Wilson began planning for the attack in the winter of 2020, and on Dec. 27, 2020 wrote, "I am ready to lay my life on the line. It is time for good men to do bad things."

The Justice Department said Wilson was part of an unnamed militia. Politico reports that Wilson was a member of the the Gray Ghost Partisan Rangers and other groups.

While Trump pardoned more than 1,500 people for crimes related to Jan. 6, 2021 on his first day in office, Wilson also had convictions for possession of a firearm by a prohibited person and possession of an unregistered firearm that originated in Kentucky.
