A total of 13 Connecticut residents were arrested in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and some of them may receive a pardon when Donald Trump takes office.
Anthony Vo told The Toronto Sun that he was "pretty much 99% sure" that Trump will pardon him once he takes office on Jan. 20.

"On January 20th, the flags at the Capitol will fly at full-staff to celebrate our country coming together behind the inauguration of our 47th President, Donald Trump," the Louisiana Republican said in a statement. "The flags will be lowered back to half-staff the following day to continue honoring President Jimmy Carter."
