  • As President Donald Trump this week sought to rewrite the history of his supporters' attack on the US Capitol, a database detailing the vast array of criminal charges and successful convictions of January 6 rioters was removed from the Department of Justice's website.

The article from CNN, published on January 25, 2025, discusses the Justice Department's efforts to create a comprehensive database to track and manage cases related to the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. This database aims to streamline the process of identifying, charging, and prosecuting individuals involved in the insurrection. It includes details on suspects, evidence, court proceedings, and outcomes, providing law enforcement and prosecutors with a centralized system to enhance coordination and efficiency. The initiative reflects the government's ongoing commitment to accountability for the events of that day, with the database also serving as a tool for public transparency and historical record-keeping.
