Deep State Judge Blocks Grand Jury from Touching Fed’s Dirty Secrets [WATCH]

Jeanine Pirro criticized a recent ruling by Judge James Boasberg that she said blocks a grand jury subpoena and interferes with the investigative powers traditionally granted to grand juries under U.S. law.

Pirro argued that the decision represents a departure from long-established legal standards governing grand jury investigations and could create obstacles for prosecutors attempting to examine potential criminal conduct.

“For the first time, a judge is ruling that a grand jury subpoena, on its face, legal in all regards, can be ignored because a judge thinks the subject is beyond reproach,” Pirro said.

She said the ruling could create a precedent allowing individuals under investigation to attempt to avoid scrutiny by claiming they are being unfairly targeted.

“This is a decision that is untethered to the law,” Pirro said.

“It creates chaos where any defendant who wishes to evade an investigation, guilty or not, can allege, I’m a victim, I’m being targeted, and therefore you cannot investigate me, and if you find the right judge, you’ll buy it.”

Pirro described the decision as a significant departure from the legal framework governing criminal investigations in the United States.

“This is the antithesis of American justice,” she said.

“Exonerating anyone without any records, without an investigation or question, is not how our criminal justice system works.”

According to Pirro, the ruling effectively places the judge in a position to halt the work of a grand jury before an investigation can proceed.

“This judge has put himself at the entrance door to the grand jury, slamming that door shut irrespective of the legal process, and thus preventing the grand jury from doing the work that it does,” Pirro said.

Pirro referenced the role of the U.S. Supreme Court in defining the authority of grand juries, arguing that the high court has historically recognized broad discretion for those bodies to conduct investigations.

“So what is the law? What is the law?” Pirro said.

“According to the United States Supreme Court, the highest court in the land, certainly higher than the court that boasts Berg, is on a grand jury.”

She continued by describing the standards she said the Supreme Court has articulated regarding the powers of grand juries.

“Every grand jury has broad discretion to quote investigate merely on suspicion that the law is being violated, merely on suspicion the law is being violated or because it wants assurance the law is not being violated,” Pirro said.

Pirro also said that under Supreme Court precedent, grand juries are permitted to act on limited information during the investigative stage.

“In fact, the court says a grand jury may act on tips and rumors,” she said.

“Right. Here are the cases and the citations from the highest court in the land.”

Pirro said the ruling by Judge Boasberg introduces a requirement that she said does not exist in established law.

“And yet this judge is shockingly requiring the government to show something akin to probable cause, and those are his words, probable cause, in order to justify the issuance of a grand jury subpoena,” Pirro said.

She argued that such a standard would significantly alter the process prosecutors use to initiate grand jury investigations.

“Folks, probable cause is not and never has been the standard that prosecutors in this country need in order to go into a grand jury,” Pirro said.

“This is not and has never been the law of the land.”

Pirro concluded by arguing that the ruling conflicts with the Supreme Court’s guidance that courts should not interfere with the work of grand juries or prosecutors conducting investigations.

“And so this decision today by Judge Boasberg runs directly afoul of our highest court’s admonition that courts and judges must not and cannot saddle grand juries with many trials and preliminary showings that impede a prosecutor’s investigation and thus frustrate the public’s interest in the fair and expeditious administration of justice,” Pirro said.
