House Republicans James Comer and Marjorie Taylor Greene pressed the DOJ on Hunter Biden's exploitation case, questioning victim rights enforcement with a Sept. 22 deadline.
House Republicans James Comer and Marjorie Taylor-Greene sent a letter Sept. 8 to the Department of Justice with an inquiry into"whether the Department … is upholding the rights of victims who were sexually exploited" by Hunter Biden.
Ziegler, who was investigating Hunter Biden for alleged tax violations, said during another hearing July 19 that certain tax write-offs Hunter made appeared to be related to sex workers. A so-called"golf membership" was also discovered to be for a"sex club." "DOJ’s decision to ignore the Committee’s request runs afoul of its own policies in the Justice Manual," the letter states."Unfortunately, DOJ’s leadership continues to apply unwritten exceptions to its own rules and policies when the Bidens are involved."The Mann Act is a federal law that combats human trafficking and the interstate transportation of individuals, including women and minors, for immoral and unlawful purposes, such as prostitution or other illegal sexual activities. Comer and Greene noted the DOJ"failed to respond to the Committee" after its Aug. 25 letter inquiring into the"DOJ’s handling of victims’ rights" was ignored. "Considering the seriousness of this obstructive behavior, we request information as to whether anyone advised you not to respond to our inquiry, including any Department employee at the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware, DOJ Office of Legislative Affairs , Main Justice, or the White House," Comer and Greene wrote. President Biden's son Hunter Biden exits the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building in Delaware July 26, 2023. Greene and Comer want the DOJ to respond whether they"notified [victims] of their statutory rights" in the Hunter Biden investigation, as well as the names of people who may have advised it"not to respond to the Committee’s letter" in July. letter was sent as special counsel David Weiss prepares to indict Hunter on gun charges. "The Speedy Trial Act requires that the Government obtain the return of an indictment by a grand jury by Friday, September 29, 2023, at the earliest," according to court documents filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware."The Government intends to seek the return of an indictment in this case before that date."
