Juez de Washington rechaza cargo de obstrucción contra ex funcionarios del FBI

Un magistrado de Washington desestimó el cargo de obstrucción contra los ex agentes del FBI Nikki Floris y Bradley Benavides el 27 de octubre, calificando la presentación nocturna de la denuncia suplementaria como inusual. El juez rechazó el intento del Departamento de Justicia de añadir un cargo de obstrucción de la justicia al caso.

El Departamento de Justicia había presentado la denuncia penal suplementaria el 23 de octubre, ampliando la acusación inicial que imputaba a los dos ex funcionarios haber mentido al Congreso sobre la investigación del portátil de Hunter Biden. Las acusaciones originales, anunciadas a principios de octubre, sostenían que Floris y Benavides habían proporcionado declaraciones falsas a los legisladores y luego se entregaron a las autoridades.
