Скачать или смотреть Jack Smith’s Attorneys Slam 'Unfounded' Ethics Probe | Trump Prosecution Fallout

Attorneys for former special counsel Jack Smith have issued a strong rebuttal to the Office of Special Counsel's investigation into Smith's prosecution of Donald Trump. In a newly released letter, lawyers Lanny Breuer and Peter Koski call the probe 'imaginary and unfounded,' defending Smith's actions as strictly evidence-based and in line with DOJ guidelines.

The investigation stems from a referral by Republican Sen. Tom Cotton, who alleges Smith violated the Hatch Act by influencing the 2024 election through his legal actions against Trump. Smith’s attorneys argue that the OSC has no precedent or authority to investigate federal prosecutors under the Hatch Act, and warn that such an interpretation could undermine the DOJ’s ability to prosecute public officials.
