Rioters Seek Compensation After Trump Pardons

Following their pardons by former President Donald Trump, rioters who participated in the January 6th Capitol attack are now seeking financial compensation. Mark McCloskey, a lawyer for one of the rioters, has proposed the creation of a ‘voluntary nonjudicial resolution committee’ to evaluate individual cases and determine damages. McCloskey claims the prosecutions were unjust and has met with senior Justice Department officials to explore this possibility. The development raises questions about the legal and financial implications for those involved in the incident.
