For more than five years, Americans have been told that January 6 was among the most thoroughly investigated events in our nation’s history. Thousands of hours of surveillance footage were collected. Millions of pages of documents were produced. One of the largest criminal investigations in Department of Justice history unfolded in federal courtrooms across Washington, D.C.
Yet one question has persisted:
Why can’t the American people see the evidence for themselves?
That question is now squarely before a federal judge.

On Friday, attorney Roger I. Roots and paralegal Emily Lambert of The Ticktin Law Group filed a motion on behalf of January 6 defendant Dominic Pezzola asking the court to lift the sweeping protective order that has restricted public access to much of the government’s January 6 discovery.
The motion asks not only that the protective order be dissolved, but that the government’s Evidence.com and Relativity databases be preserved and ultimately made available for journalists, historians, researchers, and the American people to examine.
The filing rests on a straightforward proposition: transparency strengthens confidence in the justice system. It cites longstanding Supreme Court precedent recognizing a presumptive right of public access to criminal proceedings and judicial records and argues that circumstances have changed dramatically since the protective orders were first entered in 2021.

As the motion notes, President Donald Trump’s January 20, 2025 proclamation described the January 6 prosecutions as a “grave national injustice.” The filing also points to continued national interest in the cases, developments concerning the Capitol pipe bomb investigation, and what it characterizes as a growing historical need to preserve and examine the evidence.
For many who have spent years following these cases, the request for transparency is hardly new.
Treniss Evans, founder of Condemned USA, January 6 defendant, author of the bestselling Call It Insurrection, Comrade, and a longtime advocate for January 6 defendants, believes the public deserves the opportunity to evaluate the evidence independently.

“The Gateway Pundit covered this ground back when Cara Castronuova was the journalist covering the Proud Boys trial,” Evans said.
“The Proud Boys and Oath Keepers so-called trials were two of the most visible miscarriages of justice in recent times,” he added.
Evans argues that releasing the government’s evidence would allow Americans to evaluate issues that defendants and defense attorneys have raised throughout the litigation, including allegations of entrapment, selective or vindictive prosecution, discovery violations, and prosecutorial misconduct involving various officials.
Those allegations have been disputed by the government, but Evans contends that broad public access to the underlying evidence would allow independent scrutiny rather than reliance on competing narratives alone.

“Brady violations, the government’s failure to adhere to discovery obligations, were almost a daily occurrence and served up as the injustice du jour,” Evans said.
Whether one agrees with Evans or with the Department of Justice is ultimately beside the point.

The larger question is whether transparency should be feared. If the government’s actions throughout the January 6 investigation were proper, public access to the evidence should reinforce confidence in the justice system.

If mistakes were made, public access allows those mistakes to be identified, debated, and, where appropriate, corrected. Either outcome serves the interests of justice.
The Ticktin Law Group has continued to pursue litigation arising from the January 6 prosecutions, while Condemned USA has remained active in supporting defendants and advocating for greater transparency surrounding the government’s investigation.
The court will now decide whether the protective order should remain in place.
The American people should hope the answer is simple.
History belongs to the public—not behind a password-protected database.
