A police union that endorsed Donald Trump during the 2024 election campaign has condemned the now-president over his sweeping pardon of Jan. 6, 2021, rioters.
In a joint statement with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) on Tuesday said it was “deeply discouraged” by recent pardons and commutations given by Trump and former President Joe Biden to those who have been convicted of killing or assaulting police.
On Monday, Trump offered clemency to the roughly 1,500 people charged in relation to the Capitol riot. Some of those given pardons had been handed multi-year sentences for assaulting police officers or other more serious crimes.
Dozens of officers were injured during the attack. Five officers died afterward, one from a stroke and four by suicide.
