科米寻求撤销伪证和妨碍司法指控
摘要
前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米已提交动议，要求撤销针对他的伪证和妨碍司法指控，指控检方行为不当及政治偏见。
前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米已在联邦法院提交动议，寻求撤销对他的伪证和妨碍司法指控。他的法律团队辩称，起诉书存在缺陷，原因是涉嫌滥用大陪审团程序，并声称科米并未作出被指控的虚假陈述。
这些动议提交于弗吉尼亚东区联邦法院，补充了科米辩护方此前的质疑，包括对报复性起诉的指控以及对美国检察官林赛·哈利根任命的质疑。哈利根在任命后不久便促成了起诉，她曾是特朗普总统的私人律师，因缺乏检察经验而受到批评。
科米的律师认为，他在2020年参议院司法委员会作证时所回答的问题存在歧义，他的回答是真实的，因此不构成伪证。他们还指控哈利根在大陪审团前的行为不规范且可能存在偏见，指出她缺乏经验且在程序中缺乏监督。
辩护方已请求提供详细指控说明，并对科米与其法律顾问之间的特权通信处理提出关切。相关动议及对哈利根任命的质疑将于11月13日举行听证会。
司法部尚未对这些动议作出回应。由于案件的政治影响及涉及的高调人物，该案持续引发关注。
