exist The wave of pardon President Trump has paid tribute to some of his supporters and agents, and a former Idaho loyalist is working to return to her pardon.

Pamela Hemphil It is one of more than 1,500 people Mr. Trump pardoned earlier this year Their role in the U.S. Capitol uprising. She cited the help of Republican senators, formally rejected and blocked the pardon of Trump issued to her on January 20 Return to the White House on the first day.

Although Hamphill is the defendant to the largest criminal prosecutor in U.S. history, she appears to be the defendant standing on January 6 that rejected Mr. Trump’s leniency.

Hemphill said in a conversation with her CBS News in Idaho: “The pardon just contributes to their narrative, that’s lies, propaganda. We’re guilty, period.”

"We all know they're burning for us. They're using the January 6th to continue Trump's narrative that the Justice Department was weaponized," she said. "They're not, when the FBI came to my house, oh my god, they're very professional. They're very nice to me."

Hemphill pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges for his role in the crowd on January 6, 2021.

Prosecutors argued that Hamphill "was in front of the crowd, face-to-face with U.S. Capitol police and other law enforcement officers, trying to leave the mob behind a metal bicycle-style obstacle."

According to a court application, they accused Hemphill of promoting others after the 2020 election to obtain Washington's election voting certification.

“On December 28, 2020, Hemphill announced on January 6 that he encouraged to go to Washington, D.C., saying 'It's a war!' Prosecutors said that on January 1, 2021, she posted a message on her way to Washington, D.C. on January 6."

Hemphill also pleaded guilty to the charges of illegal march in January 2022 and was sentenced later that year, including three years of probation.

Her case reflects many other misdemeanor cases siege at the U.S. Capitol, where crowds have no charges of physical contact with police or damage to any property. Hemphill was exempted from serving his sentence at the time of his sentence, although prosecutors stressed how each member of the mob contributed to local defeats, injuries and damage to American democracy.

Hemphill told CBS News that it would be inappropriate and harmful to the perception of the federal government for her and her colleagues in the crowd.

"How can you sleep at night when you know you're guilty? You know everyone there has a gui. I can't live with myself. I have to be with me. And God."

Former pardon attorney Liz Oyer, who was fired by the Trump administration in March after disagreement over the case, told CBS News that Hamphere's protests contrasted with the actions of other Capitol riot defendants who espouse their own pardons.

"On January 6, the defendants blew up our phones, seeking a copy of the pardon. They wanted a quick copy," Oye said. "They wanted it boxed and signed."

CBS News Program Reviewed Court Application Programme January 6 Other defendants have used their pardon certificate to debate on their case, compensation or other legal matters.

By contrast, the Senate records obtained by CBS News show Hemphill seeks assistance from Sen. Sen. James Risch, Republican of Idaho, to ensure the Justice Department formally recognizes that she will not accept pardons.

"Ms. Hampshire's not accepted," the Office of the Parliament Lawyer wrote in an April 2 letter to Senator Risch. The letter said the Justice Department would not issue a formal certificate to Hemphill to record her pardon.

"U.S. Senator Jim Risch's office regularly assists matters related to federal agencies or programs. We cannot disclose details about individual cases due to privacy concerns," a Risch spokesman said in a statement to CBS News.

Hemphill conducted podcasts and podcasts with other defendants on January 6 on the defendant's whitewashed arguments she said was Capitol Riot. In a segment in a podcast earlier this spring, Hemphill debates Enrique Tarrio,former Proud boy The leader convicted at the trial and sentenced to the longest jail sentence among the defendants on January 6. Tarrio's verdict was commuted by Trump.

Hemphill told CBS News that she hopes her protests will attract the president's attention.

"Trump might say that ungrateful lady, I'm going to make sure she's back on probation and give her the worst you can give her. I won't be surprised."
