Nadler presses DOJ to prosecute all involved in Capitol riot


Nadler presses DOJ to prosecute all involved in Capitol riot
By Tal Axelrod - 01/29/21 04:14 PM EST


House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) is demanding answers from the Department of Justice (DOJ) in response to reports that it is considering not charging more of the people who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6.

Nadler expressed alarm at the possibility that some might not be charged, saying it was "critical that all of the perpetrators of this insurrectionist attack be identified, investigated, arrested, charged and subsequently prosecuted,” he wrote in a letter to acting Attorney General Monty Wilkinson

“The Department of Justice must dedicate every available resource to its offices across the country in order to ensure that all of these individuals are held accountable,” he wrote.

These are dangerous people, and they will keep trying the same thing if they only get their hands smacked.

Wonder if this will change once Garland is confirmed.
