James Comey Indictment

Judge Says Justice Dept. May Have Committed Misconduct in Comey Case
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/17/us/politics/comey-justice-department-misconduct.html
The magistrate judge raised the question of whether “government misconduct” in the case might require dismissing the charges against the former F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, altogether.

A federal magistrate judge said on Monday that the criminal case against James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, could be in trouble because of a series of apparent errors committed in front of the grand jury by Lindsey Halligan, the inexperienced prosecutor picked by President Trump to oversee the matter.

The remarkable rebuke of Ms. Halligan came in a 24-page ruling in which the magistrate judge, William E. Fitzpatrick, ordered her to give Mr. Comey’s lawyers all of the grand jury materials she used to obtain the indictment and raised the question of whether “government misconduct” in the case might require dismissing the charges altogether.

In his ruling, Judge Fitzpatrick said that when Ms. Halligan appeared — by herself — in front of the grand jury in September to seek an indictment accusing Mr. Comey of lying to and obstructing Congress in 2020 testimony, she made at least two “fundamental and highly prejudicial” misstatements of the law. He also pointed out that the grand jury materials he ordered her to turn over to him for his review this month appeared to be incomplete and “likely do not reflect the full proceedings.”

“The court is finding that the government’s actions in this case — whether purposeful, reckless or negligent — raise genuine issues of misconduct, are inextricably linked to the government’s grand jury presentation and deserve to be fully explored by the defense,” Judge Fitzpatrick wrote.

They should disbar everyone involved at the DOJ.

Which J6 defendants even asked for the GJ materials? What were the reasons they presented? What reasons did the judges give for denying the requests?

Don't feed trolls. The J6 defendants received transcripts of the testimony of all GJ witnesses, just like every other criminal defendant in federal court.

"NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court."

This will be over by the end of the week.

Then disbarment proceedings against Halligan and the rest of the Trump Team Vengeance can begin.

Isn’t that illegal? Don’t lawyers have certain rules they have to follow in court? This sounds like a free for all.

This would be known as a fraud on the court. We found someone lying, and it's Lindsay Halligan!

The Trump admin doesn't care about constitutional rights. That's been clear from day 1 of his first term.
