Missouri Man Allowed To Attend Trump's Inauguration After Capitol Riot

President-elect Donald Trump

A Missouri man who pleaded guilty to entering the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, has been granted permission by a federal judge to attend President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next month. The judge also authorized the man, Eric Peterson, to travel within the Kansas City metropolitan area.

Peterson, who admitted to “entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds” during the riot, is scheduled to be sentenced on January 27, a week after Trump's inauguration. As part of his plea agreement, Peterson must pay $500 in restitution to the Architect of the Capitol.
