President Trump has pardoned nearly 1,600 protestors who were charged with various crimes related to their participation in the Jan 6 Capitol riot. How many will be arrested for any reason between the beginning of this market and the end of Jan 6, 2026?
This market will resolve one week after close.

Also daniel ball doesnt count (https://abcnews.go.com/US/jan-6-rioter-case-tossed-after-trump-pardon/story?id=117982390)
he was arrested the morning of the 22nd. This question was created in the evening.
@prismatic Thanks! I think this is right; I will resolve in a day or two just in case anyone else finds something.
@CraigDemel yeah this question caught my interest so I ended up looking into it for an hour but def look for anyone else!
I don't know who's keeping count (and you may want to wait for more mainstream reporting on this), but FWIW: https://bsky.app/profile/meidastouch.com/post/3m3pp2ynlds2u
@WilliamGunn Thanks, resolving 0 and 1 as NO (I didn't do the bookkeeping on the first guy)!
Edit: strike that, at least from my phone I can't do this. But @traders, this market will currently resolve to no less than 2.
@JussiVilleHeiskanen I'm sure there are senses in which it's equivalent, but as the market maker I said "arrested" so I won't count it.

@traders, I know I said "market resolves one week after close", but this seems like a clear resolve NO for 0. What do you think?
@CraigDemel the article you linked at the end mentioned someone who got a 10 year sentence and one that was shot dead by cop
@JussiVilleHeiskanen the ten year sentence person, Emily Hernandez, was arrested in 2022, long before market creation: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/01/30/emily-hernandez-sentenced-fatal-car-crash/78047420007/
