United States. \u200dThe Court&#8217;s decision clarified that the felony charge of obstruction, specifically under 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 1512(c)(2), applies narrowly and only to actions that impair the\u2062 use of\u2064 records, documents, or tangible\u200b objects in \u200dofficial proceedings. Consequently, many defendants facing these charges \u2064are now seeing them dismissed,\u200b prompting some legal experts to suggest that the DOJ is reevaluating\u200c its\u2063 approach to such cases.<\/p>\n<p>Defense attorney Bill \u200dShipley noted that prosecutors are increasingly dropping the obstruction charges and offering pleas to lesser offenses. \u2064Historically, around\u200d 259 \u200dindividuals have faced \u2064these felony \u200bcharges, but the recent trend may significantly benefit those still awaiting trial. For example, defendants like Deborah Lynn\u200b Lee have had her felony \u200dcharge dropped in favor \u200bof lesser misdemeanor charges, reducing her potential maximum sentence substantially.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these dismissals, defendants are not\u2064 entirely clear of liability, as they still\u200d face consequences\u2062 for other\u2063 charges. Prosecutors\u2062 maintain that those who have already been \u2064sentenced \u200cwill not see their convictions \u200cvacated, citing procedural challenges.

On Wednesday, the attorney posted to X that the government is now &ldquo;doing it in every case that is about to go to trial.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>There are 259 people, around 2% of all Jan. 6 defendants, who have been charged with the felony obstruction count, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/usao-dc\/43-months-jan-6-attack-capitol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>according<\/a> to the DOJ, with around 133 having already been sentenced. Seventeen of the 133 convicted of this charge and no other felony are serving incarceration sentences.<\/p>\n<p>Now, up to 126 defendants awaiting sentencing or pending trial could stand to benefit from the recent pattern of dropped obstruction charges, whether they&rsquo;re paying thousands of dollars by the hour for an attorney or if they&rsquo;re bold enough to represent themselves in court.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m not here claiming that great lawyering by me brought that about,&rdquo; Shipley wrote on X in reference to the flow of 1512(c)(2) counts dropped.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The proof is in the case filings<\/h2>\n<p>The case of Deborah Lynn Lee, a 58-year-old woman from northeastern Pennsylvania who recently saw her felony obstruction charge <a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.dcd.235035\/gov.uscourts.dcd.235035.131.0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>dropped<\/a> on her birthday, Aug. 2, is a prime example of the DOJ&rsquo;s retreat.<\/p>\n<p>Lee still <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/man-found-guilty-in-wrong-way-fatal-crash-in-orange-county\/\" title=\"Man convicted for deadly wrong-way crash in Orange County.\">faces misdemeanor counts<\/a> of entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building. Altogether, she could face up to three years in prison and fines up to $210,000, though it&rsquo;s still a far cry from the possible 23 years in prison and $460,000 in fines she faced if she had not convinced prosecutors to drop the obstruction count.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Assistant U.S. Attorney Alexander Diamond provided no explanation for the dismissal of the felony count.<\/p>\n<p>Lee&rsquo;s trial was slated for Sept. 4, but her attorney, Shipley, insists that she can opt for a magistrate judge for her trial now that it is only a four-count misdemeanor case, meaning another new trial date will likely be set for her.<\/p>\n<p>Another example recently unfolded in the case of Michael Pope, who traveled with his brother, William Pope, to the &ldquo;Stop the Steal&rdquo; rally on Jan. 6 in support of then-President Donald Trump&rsquo;s protest against his election defeat. Prosecutors on Aug. 2 agreed to <a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.dcd.228003\/gov.uscourts.dcd.228003.342.0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>dismiss<\/a> Michael Pope&rsquo;s obstruction count, citing the &ldquo;interest of justice and in order to clarify and simplify the issues to be resolved as a result of the trial of the defendant.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>William Pope is defending himself in his own case, and his judge has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.courtlistener.com\/?type=r&amp;q=docket_id%3A59682782%201512\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>ordered<\/a> prosecutors to provide their position on his obstruction charge before the next status conference on Aug. 23, a signal that he, too, could see this charge dropped.<\/p>\n<p>The growing trend of dropped obstruction charges by no means suggests the affected defendants are completely off the hook for their alleged crimes, as not one defendant awaiting a trial&nbsp;or sentence is charged&nbsp;solely on the obstruction count. However, the pattern may suggest the DOJ is now more focused on the expediency of adjudicating pending cases while prosecutors continue to evaluate what to do with 1512(c)(2) cases moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, prosecutors within U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves&rsquo;s office have written in court filings the government is evaluating its approach to 1512(c)(2) &ldquo;carefully,&rdquo; while sticking firmly to the notion that the Supreme Court did not &ldquo;reject application&rdquo; of the felony count to the riot.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Rather, the Court explained that the government must establish that the defendant impaired the availability or integrity for use in an official proceeding of records, documents, objects, or other things used in the proceeding&mdash;such as witness testimony or intangible information&mdash;or attempted to do so,&rdquo; Graves&rsquo;s office wrote in response to defendant Michael Oliveras, who is seeking to postpone his sentencing in light of <em>Fischer<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Former federal prosecutor and <em>National Review <\/em>columnist Andy McCarthy told the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em> that he did not have first-hand knowledge of the DOJ&rsquo;s handling of the cases with felony obstruction counts but said it &ldquo;makes sense&rdquo; that prosecutors have been dropping those counts.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;If a case is not scheduled for trial any time soon, the prosecutors can bide their time and try to negotiate some kind of guilty plea, knowing that, if negotiations fail, they can always dismiss the case down the road,&rdquo; McCarthy said. &ldquo;But if the case is already scheduled for trial, and the prosecutors believe they can&rsquo;t win because of the&nbsp;<em>Fischer<\/em>&nbsp;decision, it&rsquo;s not surprising that they&rsquo;d drop those cases.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about defendants who have already been sentenced?<\/h2>\n<p>For defendants who have already pleaded guilty to obstruction felony counts or have already been sentenced, prosecutors are maintaining that those convictions should not be vacated.<\/p>\n<p>According to DOJ sentencing data, at least 35 people have already pleaded guilty to the obstruction count or other charges they faced.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors cite the Supreme Court&rsquo;s 1998 precedent in <em>Bousley v. United States<\/em> that makes it difficult for defendants to overturn convictions on the grounds that their actions were later deemed noncriminal unless they can demonstrate &ldquo;actual innocence,&rdquo; a significant procedural hurdle.<\/p>\n<p>In opposition to motions to vacate by defendants such as Proud Boys members Nicholas Ochs and Nicholas DeCarlo, DOJ officials argue that those people should not be able to back out of their deals. Both accepted guilty plea deals to one count of violating 1512(c)(2), are serving their four-year prison sentences, and are scheduled to be released in September 2025.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ongoing <em>Fischer <\/em>evaluation matters for Trump&rsquo;s case<\/h2>\n<p>The most high-profile defendant facing the felony obstruction charge is Trump, who recently saw his four-count criminal trial in Washington land back into the hands of U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan after an eight-month delay spurred by his bid to have the Supreme Court find he enjoys presidential immunity.<\/p>\n<p>Special counsel Jack Smith has said he will still defend the obstruction counts in Trump&rsquo;s case over the former president&rsquo;s &ldquo;efforts to use fraudulent electoral certifications rather than genuine ones at the Joint Session,&rdquo; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/04\/08\/jack-smith-false-elector-scheme-saves-trump-obstruction-charges-00151198\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>according<\/a> to a brief filed in April, two months before the <em>Fischer <\/em>decision.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, legal experts concede that the Supreme Court did not preclude federal prosecutors from applying the 1512(c)(2) statute as it was originally intended, such as prosecuting acts of evidence tampering such as the document shredding in the Enron accounting scandal.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;If, in highly unusual cases, [prosecutors] have evidence of intention to destroy or manufacture evidence or intimidate witnesses, those cases could survive the&nbsp;<em>Fischer&nbsp;<\/em>ruling,&rdquo; McCarthy told the&nbsp;<em>Washington Examiner<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, whether the obstruction charges are sustained in the Trump indictment may depend on whether the case itself survives, given that Trump would likely dismiss it entirely if he wins the Nov. 5 presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Washington Examiner <\/em>did not receive a response from the U.S. Attorney&rsquo;s Office for the District of Columbia when reached for contact.<\/p>\n<p> <script data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/cdn-cgi\/scripts\/5c5dd728\/cloudflare-static\/email-decode.min.js\"><\/script><script>!function(){var g=window;g.googletag=g.googletag||{},g.googletag.cmd=g.googletag.cmd||[],g.googletag.cmd.push(function(){g.googletag.pubads().setTargeting(\"has-featured-video\",\"true\")})}();<\/script><script>var _bp=_bp||[];_bp.push({\"div\":\"Brid_1731650\",\"obj\":{\"id\":\"27789\",\"width\":\"1280\",\"height\":\"720\",\"stickyDirection\":\"below\",\"video\":\"1731650\"}});<\/script><script defer src=\"https:\/\/services.brid.tv\/player\/build\/brid.min.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Department of Justice (DOJ) is dismissing many obstruction charges related to the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. A review by the Washington Examiner of court documents reveals that several defendants who were charged with obstructing Congress are having those charges dropped following a Supreme Court ruling that determined the DOJ had overreached in its application of the law. In the case Fischer v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that felony obstruction charges against January 6 defendants were improperly applied, clarifying that such charges should only pertain to actions like tampering with or destroying evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Since this ruling, there has been a noticeable increase in cases where pending defendants are seeing their obstruction charges dismissed. Bill Shipley, a well-known attorney representing many Capitol riot defendants, noted that prosecutors have been dropping these specific obstruction counts and offering plea deals for other offenses instead. This trend was first reported in mid-July and has since escalated significantly.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, around 259 individuals have faced felony obstruction charges under statute 1512(c)(2), with approximately half already sentenced; some are serving prison time solely for this charge. The recent pattern suggests up to 126 remaining defendants could benefit from these dropped charges as they await trial or sentencing.<\/p>\n<p>One illustrative case is Deborah Lynn Lee from Pennsylvania, whose felony charge was dismissed on her birthday while she still faces lesser misdemeanor counts which could lead to significant penalties but far less severe than what she would have faced if convicted on all counts originally.<\/p>\n<p>Another example involves Michael Pope who had his obstruction charge dropped as part of an effort by prosecutors to simplify his case ahead of trial.<\/p>\n<p>While this trend indicates a shift in how the DOJ is handling these cases\u2014likely focusing on more efficient resolutions\u2014it does not mean affected defendants are free from accountability for their actions during the riot; none face solely obstruction-related charges at this stage.<\/p>\n<p>For those already convicted or sentenced under similar counts before this change occurred, prosecutors argue against vacating those convictions based on new interpretations of law unless actual innocence can be proven\u2014a challenging standard to meet legally.<\/p>\n<p>In high-profile cases like Donald Trump&#8217;s ongoing legal battles concerning similar allegations of obstructive behavior related to election certification processes during January 6 events remain complex and may still proceed despite recent rulings affecting other cases<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2633,"featured_media":2325479,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AP21238576240920.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[7076,36978,33201],"class_list":["post-2325478","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-doj","tag-january-6","tag-obstruction-charges"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AP21238576240920.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2325478","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2633"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2325478"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2325478\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2325479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2325478"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2325478"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2325478"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
