According to court documents signed by Daniel’s lawyer Tuesday, in 2015 and 2016 Daniel enticed a minor under the age of 12 “to engage in sexually explicit conduct” for the purpose of producing “a visual depiction” of the conduct.David Paul Daniel at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.United States CourtsThe details of Daniel’s case emerged in part as investigators probed his involvement in the Capitol attack. Prosecutors said he convinced another minor victim to engage in “sexually explicit conduct for the purpose of producing” a visual depiction of the conduct, authorities said. That victim was under the age of 18. It’s not clear yet when he might be sentenced. Last year, just before Trump took office and gave mass clemency to Jan. 6 defendants including Daniel, he admitted that he assaulted law enforcement during the Capitol breach. Daniel had been arrested in connection with the Jan. 6 attack in November 2023. Other pardoned Jan. 6 defendants have been convicted in other criminal cases including child sexual abuse cases. Daniel Tocci was sentenced to four years in prison in March. Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison in March after he was convicted of child sex crimes. Florida prosecutors said Johnson tried to silence one of his victims with the promise of money from a Jan. 6 settlement he expected to receive from the Trump administration; the administration has not committed to making such agreements yet.In Daniel’s case, U.S. District Judge Matthew Orso ruled in January that “child exploitation is not ‘conduct related to the events at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021’” and that the pardon’s “plain language does not apply to the indictment in this case.”An attorney for Daniel did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Last February, a judge in a gun case against another rioter, Dan Wilson, highlighted Daniel’s prosecution when asking a DOJ attorney about how the Trump administration was drawing the line on pardons. The Trump administration decided to treat guns seized during Jan. 6 raids differently from child sexual abuse material it uncovered during their investigations. Trump eventually issued a separate pardon in Wilson’s case, granting Wilson clemency for his gun offense in addition to his Jan. 6 conduct.Attorneys for Brian Cole, Jr., who is accused of planting pipe bombs outside of the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee on the eve of the Jan. 6 attack, have argued that Trump’s pardon applies to his conduct. Federal prosecutors said Friday that Trump’s pardon did not apply to Cole’s conduct.
