Prosecutors in Texas sought a $1 million bond for a Jan. 6 rioter arrested for online solicitation of a minor, despite being pardoned by former President Donald Trump. The accused’s attorney managed to reduce the bond to $25,000 after challenging the initial amount.

Harris County Assistant District Attorney Stephen Driver emphasized the gravity of protecting children from exploitation, particularly sexual exploitation, in court on Monday, advocating for the high bond amount. Driver stressed the importance of safeguarding children as a challenging but crucial responsibility.
