Pirro signs DOJ motion to dismiss Bannon contempt indictment
U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro signed a motion on Monday to dismiss with prejudice former Trump aide Steve Bannon’s indictment on contempt charges.
“The government has determined in its prosecutorial discretion that dismissal of this criminal case is in the interests of justice,” the court document stated. “Defendant Bannon does not oppose this motion.”
Bannon was once convicted for defying a subpoena from the House Jan. 6 committee.
The case was heading toward the Supreme Court, but the new motion makes it appear the Justice Department wants to end the case without a review from the high court.
