An individual who was accused and subsequently pardoned for involvement in the Capitol riots is now seeking to recover a fine she previously paid. However, the United States Department of Justice has refused the request, stating they will not return the funds.
This legal development follows the prolonged failure of a $1.776 billion fund established to compensate individuals who claimed to be victims of the alleged political instrumentalization of the judicial system by the government.
