Justice Department backs off opposition to releasing videos of attack on Capitol Police officer
CNN
The Justice Department told a court it is backing down from its unwillingness to share with media outlets videos of the alleged chemical spray assault of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick and others on January 6, according to a new court filing.
The Justice Department wrote on Tuesday night that it would "provide" the videos in the Sicknick assault case to the news outlets. Sicknick died the day after the riot after suffering strokes, Washington, DC's chief medical examiner has determined. Previously, the Justice Department opposed releasing any videos that had already been used as evidence in court, then largely backed down and said investigators only sought to protect surveillance footage of the Capitol, citing security concerns.
Jeffrey Epstein survivors are slamming the Justice Department’s partial release of the Epstein files that began last Friday, contending that contrary to what is mandated by law, the department’s disclosures so far have been incomplete and improperly redacted — and challenging for the survivors to navigate as they search for information about their own cases.
