U.S. Attorney's Office cites filing error, superseding complaint dismissed

The U. S. Attorney’s Office in Washington said it had made a procedural filing error, and a Washington magistrate judge dismissed the superseding criminal complaint that added obstruction charges against former FBI agents Nikki Floris and Bradley Benavides on October 29.

The superseding complaint stemmed from the Justice Department’s indictment of the two former FBI counterintelligence officials for allegedly lying to Congress about the bureau’s 2020-2021 investigation into Hunter Biden’s laptop, charges first filed on October 23. Floris and Benavides had previously surrendered after the initial false-statement charges were announced.

One claim regarding a Washington magistrate judge rejecting a late-filed superseding criminal complaint adding obstruction charges against two former FBI agents accused of lying to Congress about Hunter Biden investigations lacks sufficient evidence for verification. Another claim about two former FBI officials accused of providing false statements to Congress about their involvement in the Hunter Biden investigation surrendering to authorities is partially confirmed. The claim that prosecutors admitted a procedural mistake in the criminal complaint against former FBI agents Nikki Floris and Bradley Benavides, resulting in a judge dismissing the superseding complaint, also lacks enough evidence to verify.
