After the January 6th riots, the U.S. Department of Justice began charging anyone they thought had participated, but not just for the crimes they committed. According to the DOJ, anyone who showed up at the Capitol had corruptly obstructed or impeded an official proceeding, which was punishable by a fine and imprisonment for up to 20 years.

Many claimed that the DOJ was overcharging these J6ers, misusing the law to punish dissenters. When it comes to 18 U. S. C. §1512(c), SCOTUS agreed.

Everyone who has been charged with a violation of §1512(c)(2) in connection with January 6th can use this opinion to move that those charges be dropped. Any other charges may proceed, after all, since they are alleged to have committed those crimes, but they do have evidence that their §1512 charges should be dropped.
