Kellyanne Conway's Husband Accuses Trump of Witness Tampering
https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/kellyanne-conways-husband-accuses-trump-of-witness-tampering/Kellyanne Conway‘s attorney husband George was quick to respond on Monday to President Donald Trump‘s latest anti-Robert Mueller Twitter tirade.
Trump rattled off a series of tweets in the morning, lamenting the latest news about Michael Cohen, praising Roger Stone for having “guts” (i.e. saying that he will “never testify against Trump”), and calling Mueller “a much different man than people think.”
George Conway singled out tweet number three and offered a pithy response.
“File under ’18 U.S.C. §§ 1503, 1512,'” he said.
18 U.S.C. § 1503 is the law on the books against corrupt or forceful attempts to “influence, intimidate, or impede any grand or petit juror, or officer in or of any court of the United States, or officer who may be serving at any examination or other proceeding before any United States magistrate judge or other committing magistrate, in the discharge of his duty.”
18 U.S.C. § 1512 is, plain and simple, witness tampering.
