Cassidy Hutchinson: Why the Jan. 6 Committee Rushed Her Testimony

On that day in June, the caller told Ms. Hutchinson, as Liz Cheney, the committee’s vice chairwoman, later disclosed: A person “let me know you have your deposition tomorrow. He wants me to let you know he’s thinking about you. He knows you’re loyal. And you’re going to do the right thing when you go in for your deposition.”

The speed, people close to the committee said, was for two crucial reasons: Ms. Hutchinson was under intense pressure from Trump World, and panel members believed that getting her story out in public would make her less vulnerable, attract powerful allies and be its own kind of protection. The committee also had to move fast, the people said, to avoid leaks of some of the most explosive testimony ever heard on Capitol Hill.

The public doesn't know but I suspect the FBI/DHS has a good idea. Maybe not enough for court, but enough to keep an eye on them until they slip up and are busted with obstruction of justice.

Obstruction is a big charge and relatively easy to prove in court...and that's just a starting point. Those who planned or participated in violence will see their sentences doubled.

18 USC 1503 is the most common obstruction charge. The statute has two prongs-, one concerning obstruction by attempting to influence jurors or officers in a judicial proceeding; and another that concerns obstruction of the “due administration of justice.”

The first prong applies only to conduct directed at jurors or officers in a judicial proceeding. The term “jurors” can include potential jurors in any case; and the term “officers” can include federal judges.

It is illegal to “corruptly, or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, [attempt] to influence, intimidate, or impede” any juror or officer in connection with their duties in a federal case.

The second prong, by comparison, is not restricted to ‘official duties in a federal case.’ This prong of the obstruction of justice statute applies to any conduct that affects the “due administration of justice.” As such, this type of obstruction is very broad. The statute prohibits any activity that “corruptly or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, influences, obstructs, or impedes, or endeavors to influence, obstruct, or impede, the due administration of justice.”

It seems like there could be an unlimited number of scenarios that could constitute obstruction of the due administration of justice, such as falsifying or destroying records, providing false information, etc.

If a person obstructs justice by influencing or attempting to influence a juror in a criminal case by force or threat of physical force, they face additional penalties. In these circumstances, the sentence for obstruction must be the maximum that could be imposed for the most serious pending criminal charge that is on trial.

A violation 18 USC 1503 is a felony offense for which the sentence can include imprisonment for 10 years. Though non-violent offenders can earn credits for good behavior while serving their sentence. The First Step Act increased the annual amount of credits to 54 days, allowing certain inmates to shave time off of their sentence.

This all reminds me so much of the Iraq War. At that time, I remember arguing that a ton of people had to be lying for Bush to be telling the truth.

Same w/ Trump. At this point, it's an endless list of people who have to be lying for Trump - a pathological liar - to be telling the truth. And most are conservatives.

Why do you still protect that guy? He's a disgrace. In a few years, it will be hard to even find someone who admits that they supported Trump.

Trump people don't care Hutchinson was threatened and warned not to testify against Trump.

Cassidy Hutchinson is lying. The J6 committee is a joke. I'm a Libra and I believe in fair play. Had the Joke6 committee allowed the Republicans to put whomever they wanted on the committee and cross examine the witnesses and ask Nancy Pelosi why the Capitol was so poorly defended on 1/6 I might have believed something they said. But they are slanting this thing to a false narrative for political purposes so they can't allow effective cross examination by the GOP. So don't expect anyone but you alt left dupes to believe them.

Horeshit. They interviewed her four times before she finally switched lawyers and gave her hearsay testimony. Let us all hear the testimony of those who were actually there, live on scene before we wrap this young lady in sainthood.
Smells a lot like Ballsey Ford until then.

plus, she was embarrassing and only had hearsay to offer.

they were smart to move on, but now here they are being dumb again.
 
THE Witch Hunt Dog and Pony Show hoped to rush her through without the SECRET SERVICE WITNESSES BEING ALLOWED TO TELL THE TRUTH.

THE WHDnPS FAILED...MISERABLY with their attempted "Blasey-Fording" of the phony "hearings".
