DOJ Report Reveals Bias in FACE Act Prosecutions Under Biden
The Justice Department terminated at least four prosecutors involved in FACE Act cases during the Biden administration, including Sanjay Patel. This action followed concerns about the handling of prosecutions related to anti-abortion activists.
Subsequently, a Justice Department report accused the Biden administration of selectively prosecuting anti-abortion activists under the FACE Act. The report cited coordination with abortion-rights groups and uneven sentencing as evidence of bias, which led to the dismissal of several prosecutors involved in these cases.
