The House Judiciary Committee is requesting answers from the Department of Justice about suspected political interference in the Roger Stone case and other criminal cases ahead of a congressional hearing with Attorney General William Barr at the end of March.
Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), who has played a large role in House Democrats’ previous investigative efforts against the president, sent Barr a letter Friday requesting that the DOJ give the committee information as well as interviews with current and former department officials.
“The Judiciary Committee needs to examine a range of recent actions that smack of political interference, including the Department’s withdrawal of the Roger Stone sentencing recommendation; intervening in the handling of the Michael Flynn prosecution; overruling the decision to relocate Paul Manafort to Rikers Island; opening investigations into career officials involved in the Russia investigation; and a series of controversial interventions into sensitive antitrust matters,” Chairman Nadler said in a statement about the request. “Our democracy is founded on the notion that no one is above the law, and strict adherence to the rule of law has separated us from all other nations.”
Among the 15 current and former Department of Justice officials requested for interviews are the four career prosecutors who resigned from the Stone case during the sentencing controversy earlier this month. The letter also requested an interview with U.S. Attorney for the District Connecticut John Durham, who is leading the DOJ’s probe into the origins of the Russia investigation.
