Houston Man Pardoned by Trump Arrested on Child Sex Charges
A Houston man, previously pardoned by Trump for his involvement in the January 6 Capitol riots, has been arrested in Texas on charges related to online solicitation of a minor. This individual, identified as Andrew Taake, reportedly faced a 2016 charge associated with sending explicit messages to someone he believed to be a minor. After being set free post-pardon, he is now facing serious allegations again, raising concerns about repeat offenses among individuals pardoned for violent crimes.
