House Oversight Subcommittee Calls for FBI Investigation of Liz Cheney for Witness Tampering with Cassidy Hutchinson, Potentially Facing 20 Years
Dec 17, 2024, 05:24 PM
The House Administration Oversight Subcommittee has recommended a criminal investigation into former Representative Liz Cheney for allegedly tampering with a witness during the January 6 congressional inquiry. The allegations stem from a report led by Chairman Barry Loudermilk, which concluded that the Capitol riot was preventable and highlighted intelligence and security failures. Cheney is accused of coaching Cassidy Hutchinson, a key witness, to alter her testimony without legal counsel present. This conduct could potentially expose Cheney to significant legal consequences, including up to 20 years in prison for witness tampering. The House GOP has formally requested the FBI to investigate these claims, which they consider serious violations of federal law. The report has intensified scrutiny of Cheney's role in the January 6 Committee, with calls for accountability growing among Republican members.
