Another instance of DoJ misconduct - this is really bad.

Remember the Broadview case out of Chicago, involving Kat Abughazaleh, who was a candidate for Congress? She and several others were prosecuted for impeding ICE officers, but the charges were dropped after the U.S. Attorney’s Office admitted that federal prosecutors had committed misconduct during the original grand jury proceedings. The judge said she had never seen worse behavior by attorneys than what she read in the transcripts. Defense attorneys say the transcripts reveal that prosecutors axed members of the grand jury who refused to indict the defendants before presenting the case a second time. https://www.notus.org/illinois/broadview-six-chicago-activists-ice-immigration-protests-kat-abughazaleh
