flag Brian Cole Jr. seeks to dismiss charges over Jan. 5 pipe bombs, claiming Trump’s Jan. 6 pardon covers his actions.

flag Brian Cole Jr., accused of planting pipe bombs near DNC and RNC headquarters on Jan. 5, 2021, is seeking to dismiss federal charges, arguing President Trump’s Jan. 6 pardons cover his case. flag His attorneys claim the acts were tied to the broader Jan. 6 events, occurred near the Capitol, and involved no injuries, placing them within the pardon’s scope. flag Prosecutors dispute this, noting the bombings predated Jan. 6 and diverted law enforcement resources. flag The Justice Department has not commented, and the legal reach of the pardons—especially to pre-January 6 acts—remains untested and uncertain. flag The case continues.
