Prosecutor conceded lack of criminal evidence in Federal Reserve investigation, transcript shows - AP News
Overview
Court transcripts showed a prosecutor privately conceded the renovation probe had not produced evidence of a crime before subpoenas were quashed, a development that significantly weakened the investigation. The Justice Department’s formal decision to drop the criminal inquiry is consistent with that concession and makes any continued appeals less likely to affect the near-term confirmation timeline. The Chicago case, where charges against activists were abandoned amid grand jury misconduct allegations, underscores a broader pattern of high-profile probes and prosecutions unraveling under evidence or procedural scrutiny.
