Summary
Antony Vo, convicted for participating in the Jan. 6 Capitol riots alongside his mother, has fled to Canada and applied for asylum instead of reporting to prison to serve a nine-month sentence.
Vo claims his conviction was “political persecution” and part of a government conspiracy.
Currently living in Canada with his mother, who also faces federal charges, Vo believes Trump will pardon Jan. 6 rioters.
U.S. authorities have been actively searching for him, while his asylum application remains under review by Canadian officials.
Well he only has a few more weeks until he’s pardoned.
