Biography
Jean Marshall, a Catholic nurse from Kingston, Massachusetts, and the sister of fellow defendant Paulette Harlow, was one of the "DC Nine" convicted in the October 22, 2020 blockade of the Washington Surgi-Clinic. Convicted September 15, 2023 and taken into custody, she was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison; her request to postpone reporting for scheduled hip surgery was denied, and she was held despite osteoporosis, acute hip pain and other ailments. "I'm just there to save the child," she said of the blockade. She was pardoned by President Trump on January 23, 2025.
The DOJ clemency list preserved in a January 13, 2026 congressional attachment includes Jean Marshall in the January 23, 2025 FACE Act pardons. The table lists the imposed prison term as twenty-four months, May 15, 2024. This confirms the grant and the listed sentence, not that the full term was served or the exact day of physical release.
