U.S. Navy Veteran Jason Riddle Rejects Trump’s Pardon, Hopes Trump Imprisoned as Judge Denies Restitution Refund

Jason Riddle, a U.S. Navy veteran convicted for his role in the January 6 Capitol attack, has formally rejected a presidential pardon offered by former President Donald Trump. Riddle stated that he believes he deserves to serve prison time for his actions. This refusal comes amid legal proceedings where a judge recently denied a request to refund restitution payments related to the January 6 events, questioning the Department of Justice's unusual support for the refund. Riddle also expressed hope that Trump himself will face imprisonment in the future.
