Pirro Faced Ethics Probe Over Lawmaker Charges | Global News
Description
A watchdog group has launched bar complaints against U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro and two top aides, accusing them of politically motivated misconduct for pushing to indict six Democratic lawmakers who urged troops to resist unlawful orders — a move the grand jury in Washington already rejected. The group claims Pirro’s office abused its power to target political enemies of the President, while Pirro’s team insists prosecutors aren’t bound to follow presidential directives and calls the complaints a cynical attempt to silence legitimate legal work. With a history of challenging Trump-era officials, the watchdog argues that ethical rules demand prosecutors act independently — not as enforcers of political agendas.
