    Ed Martin Reviews DOJ's Use of Felony Obstruction Charges Against 1,500 January 6 Defendants

    20 postsTrump PolicyWashington DCPoliticsUnited States

    Acting U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C., Ed Martin, a Trump appointee, has initiated an internal review of the Justice Department's decision to charge over 1,500 defendants involved in the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack with felony obstruction offenses. This review specifically focuses on the use of the obstruction law, which was recently ruled by the Supreme Court to have been applied too broadly. Martin, who was involved in the 'Stop the Steal' campaign and was present at the Capitol on January 6, has requested that prosecutors turn over all records related to their work on these cases. The review comes in the wake of President Trump's recent sweeping pardons for nearly all rioters charged in connection with the Capitol attack, which has led to the resignation of several career assistant U.S. attorneys.
