D.C. Police Chief Robert Contee, and D.C. City Administrator Kevin Donahue were also present at the hearing. The House GOP blasted DC U.S. Attorney and January 6 lead prosecutor Matthew Graves for his low prosecution rate on real criminals, while at the same time abusing his office by deliberately prosecuting non-violent protestors from January 6. The US Attorneys Office for the District of Columbia declined to prosecute 67% of cases last year. According to the DC Police Chief, people who were charged with murder have been arrested on average 11 times before committing homicide. When asked by Rep. Jake LaTurner (R-KS) how many alleged criminals he declined to prosecute went on to commit murder, DCs U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves said he has no idea. https://twitter.com/i/status/1658505277224755203 Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) sets the record straight and lambasted Graves for being soft on crime. Why are you bringing only a third of the cases brought to you? Why is the DC Police Chief Contee literally calling bullshit on your excuses for not prosecuting 67% of arrests? Was he fear-mongering? said Mace. Oversight Committee @GOPoversight U.S. Attorney for DC Matthew Graves recently attacked non-traditional media for fear-mongering simply because theyve reported on the crime crisis he has helped create. @RepNancyMace sets the record straight. https://twitter.com/i/status/1658536119854587907 Rep. Greene introduced Articles of Impeachment against Graves for refusing to prosecute real criminals in the District. The time for weaponizing the Department of Justice needs to come to an end. And because you refuse to prosecute real criminals that are violating all the crimes here in Washington, DC, said Greene. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
