So Michael Popoc, Legal A.F. I'm back to do a deep dive of what's happened since the United States Supreme Court's decision in US versus Fisher, which on paper on the surface looks like a death blow to the Department of Justice's ability to prosecute

0:14.7

these Jan 6 insurrectionists and those in the future, including some named Donald

0:19.4

Trump. I don't agree with that and neither do other analysts including those at just security. Let's first lay it out for you.

0:37.6

There was a count that was used as one of the two highest level counts of charges against the Jan 6th insurrectionists by the Department of Justice. It's called obstruction of an official proceeding. The argument was that under one portion of that criminal statute, what we call 18 USC, 1512, C little 2,

0:50.0

that sounds complicated, but it really isn't. The argument for the Department of Justice, which was accepted by 14 out of 15 federal judges, was that the language there applied to anyone who tried to obstruct or interfere with an official

1:41.7

That's why they wore GoPro pros. That's why they

1:44.7

communicated with what they thought was a lack of impunity from

1:49.0

prosecution because they thought their guy was going to get back in based on

1:52.0

their actions to stop the count.

1:54.8

So the court, the Supreme Court disagreed and said at least the 6-3 Supreme Court disagreed,

2:01.0

including Kitanji Brown Jackson joining with the majority,

2:04.3

in ruling that the only way you can use 15, 12, C2 is if there is a tampering with or a destruction of actual physical evidence, including the integrity of that evidence.
