Legal Powerhouses Team Up to Seek Justice for January 6 Defendants

In a groundbreaking legal battle, attorneys Peter Ticktin and Mark McCloskey have launched a bold effort to secure justice and compensation for individuals who were arrested and imprisoned following the events of January 6, 2021. The duo, known for their high-profile legal defenses and unwavering commitment to constitutional rights, aims to expose the alleged government overreach and political targeting of Trump supporters.

A Fight for Justice Begins

For years, the narrative surrounding January 6 has been highly contested. While mainstream media has labeled it an “insurrection,” many Americans see it as a peaceful protest that was manipulated by external actors and escalated by government agents. Now, Ticktin and McCloskey are determined to take the fight to the legal system, advocating for those they believe were unjustly prosecuted.

Both lawyers have personal experience with political persecution. Ticktin, a longtime friend of President Trump and a key legal strategist, has been a target of left-wing legal attacks. McCloskey, known for standing his ground during the 2020 BLM riots, faced criminal charges for defending his home. Now, they are using their expertise to challenge what they argue was a politically motivated crackdown on January 6 protesters.

The Legal Strategy

The plan includes filing lawsuits to compensate those who were allegedly mistreated, detained without due process, and denied their constitutional rights. Key legal arguments in these cases include:

• Fourth Amendment Violations: Many January 6 defendants had their homes raided by federal agents in what the attorneys argue were unconstitutional searches and seizures.
• Sixth Amendment Violations: Some defendants were held for years without a trial, denying them the right to a speedy and fair legal process.
• Eighth Amendment Violations: Reports of extreme conditions, solitary confinement, and excessive sentencing have raised concerns about cruel and unusual punishment.

To build their case, Ticktin and McCloskey have launched a detailed questionnaire designed to gather testimony from January 6 defendants. This document includes over 100 questions aimed at exposing due process violations and prosecutorial misconduct.

The Role of Government and Alleged Entrapment

The attorneys argue that January 6 was not just a protest gone wrong, but an event manipulated by embedded provocateurs. Multiple reports indicate that undercover law enforcement agents were present among the crowd, raising serious concerns about government involvement in escalating the situation.

Evidence includes:

• Videos showing known Antifa members changing into MAGA gear.
• Footage of individuals like Ray Epps encouraging protesters to breach the Capitol.
• Reports that the FBI had over two dozen informants inside the crowd.

Furthermore, Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund’s repeated calls for National Guard assistance were reportedly ignored by Democratic leaders. Attorneys Ticktin and McCloskey claim this was intentional, designed to create chaos and justify mass arrests.

Uncovering the Truth

Former Trump adviser Jason Sullivan has played a critical role in gathering evidence for these lawsuits. Sullivan claims he has extensive documentation proving that social media companies worked in real-time to suppress exculpatory evidence that could have exonerated many January 6 defendants.

“This was a carefully orchestrated setup,” Sullivan said. “We captured thousands of posts, videos, and images that were systematically deleted from platforms like Twitter.”

What Comes Next?

With new lawsuits in the works, Ticktin and McCloskey aim to not only secure financial compensation for January 6 defendants but also to hold government officials accountable for what they call an abuse of power. The attorneys hope their legal battle will set a precedent that prevents similar political prosecutions in the future.

“This is not about politics; it’s about justice,” McCloskey stated. “If we allow the government to crush the rights of these individuals, they will continue to erode the freedoms of all Americans.”

As public awareness grows and new evidence surfaces, the legal fight surrounding January 6 is far from over. With the determination of these powerhouse attorneys, the coming months could bring dramatic revelations and a long-overdue reckoning.
