The Justice Department is seeking to indict January 6 ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson for lying to Congress, according to PunchBowl News. Earlier this year it was reported that the DOJ launched an investigation into Hutchinson. The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division presented evidence to a federal grand jury this week. Hutchinson has not been subpoenaed yet. Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon is spearheading the investigation.
“DOJ is seeking a federal criminal indictment of former WH aide Cassidy Hutchinson on charges of lying to Congress in her Jan. 6 testimony,” PunchBowl News reported. “DOJ’s Civil Rights Division brought evidence to a federal grand jury on Tuesday and is expected to present more evidence and additional witnesses later this month, per sources familiar with the plans. Hutchinson has not been subpoenaed to appear before the grand jury, per the sources,” the outlet reported.
