DOJ Prediction For Surge In January 6 Prosecutions Revealed | Eastern North Carolina Now

    The number of January 6 prosecutions could double if a newly revealed prediction by the Justice Department comes true.

    U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves wrote to Beryl Howell, the chief judge of the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., on October 28 saying between 700 and 1,200 more people could face charges, according to Bloomberg News.

    "We expect the pace of bringing new cases will increase, in an orderly fashion, over the course of the next few months," Graves said.

    Still, Graves conceded the "complexity" of the investigation made it "incredibly difficult" to predict future cases and left room for tweaking the estimates as his office works to "evaluate changing resources and circumstances."

    At the time Graves sent the letter, the Justice Department reportedly closed in on its 900th arrest.

    Howell, whose term as chief judge ends this week, released a statement saying the court "continues to manage its caseload and trial calendar efficiently, notwithstanding the delays occasioned by the pandemic."

    "So far, the court has been able to manage the increased criminal caseload well," Howell added. "Should a 'surge' of filings occur at a later date, the Court would assess what additional steps, if any, it should take."

    It's been more than two years since January 6, 2021, the day a crowd of people entered the U.S. Capitol and disrupted lawmakers who were meeting to certify Biden's 2020 election victory.

    The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia now says more than 1,000 arrests have been made and notes more than 500 defendants have pleaded guilty, including four to a federal charge of seditious conspiracy.

    Special counsel Jack Smith is investigating former President Donald Trump on two fronts, including in relation to efforts challenging the 2020 election results and the events of January 6.

    This month, Fox News host Tucker Carlson aired previously unseen security footage from the Capitol that day, which has already begun to shake up January 6 cases, and House Republicans launched a probe that will investigate the January 6 Committee.

Considering the current overwhelming obstacles inflicting stress upon America's working class: rampant inflation; energy insecurity; supply chain turmoil; banking failures; foreign policy disasters; government corruption; (DEI) Diversity Equity Inclusion narrative, with WOKE extremes practiced; Climate Change ideology; intractable crime wave in Leftist cities; wide open border by executive design; a permanently discredited Legacy Media; failed or failing education industry, just to name a few of the many: Who should Americans blame?

  Donald J. Trump

  Joseph R. Biden

  Leftist controlled Congress for the last 4 years.

  Bloated, incompetent bureaucracy weaponized and poorly managed

  The electorate, US, for putting these fools in elected office that utterly fail

In light of continued developments, primarily since 2008, there exists in these United States a Legal System which operates on a proved Two Tiered approach to justice rendered, which primarily benefits Democratic Elites and Woke Ideological Virtue Signalers, representing their co-dependent wards, to the expressed exclusion of normal hardworking American citizens: What is your suggestion in remedying this widespread injustice and, if not corrected, its existential outcome for our Constitutional Republic?

  Complete overhaul of the Department of Justice and their enforcers - the FBI - to reflect a far more honest justice system to keep patriots remaining calm.

  Disband the FBI, and request that congress investigate all unethical and non patriotic practices to partially right the wrongs of a distrusted and politically weaponized "Department of Justice."

  Continue with the current system since the two tiered justice system has been so remarkably beneficial to Democratic Socialist political hegemony; chronic distrust in institutions notwithstanding.
