Earlier this week it was reported that Acting US Attorney for DC, Ed Martin, initiated an inquiry into former US Attorney Matthew Graves’ prosecutions of more than 1,500 January 6 protestors.
Ed Martin is specifically probing Graves’ abuse of the 1512(c)(2) obstruction charge.
Matthew Graves resigned last month.
Ed Martin called the use of 1512c2 a “great failure” of the office and directed staff to immediately deliver “all files, documents, notes, emails and other information” related to 1512c2 charging decisions to two other prosecutors, who will prepare a preliminary report for Martin by this Friday.
Biden’s corrupt DOJ charged more than 300 J6ers with 18 USC §1512(c)(2). Additionally, two of the four charges against Trump in Jack Smith’s DC case were conspiracy to obstruct.
Then-US Attorney for DC, Matthew Graves, arrested and charged thousands of non-violent J6ers who didn’t even enter the Capitol building. He also threatened to seek more prison time for J6 defendants if the Supreme Court reversed the obstruction count.
