Antony Vo, a newly-pardoned Jan. 6 defendant, has returned to Indiana and hopes to work in the Trump Administration. Vo, who was prosecuted as a non-violent participant in the Capitol Riot, refused to serve his prison sentence and sought asylum in Canada, where he was arrested and banned from the country for a year. Now back in Fishers at his family’s house, Vo has been cleared of all charges and is looking towards his future. He has applied for positions in the Department of Government Efficiency and the Department of Health and Human Services, expressing a desire to work in public service. Vo believes that his involvement in the Jan. 6 protest was politically motivated, and he supports the blanket pardons and commuted sentences issued by President Trump. The Anti-Defamation League has condemned the pardons, citing the inclusion of leaders and members of extremist groups. Despite the challenges he has faced since the riot, Vo now considers Jan. 6 to be a point of pride and hopes to one day have a role in shaping the government. He plans to appeal his ban in Canada and is staying connected with others prosecuted in the Capitol riot who he believes could also end up in public service. With his mother also being pardoned by Trump, Vo is optimistic about his future prospects.
