Former President Donald Trump is"absolutely guilty" of a crime in relation to the Jan. 6 riots, committee member and outgoing Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger said.
"I have to caveat it with that I'm not a Justice Department official. They have different levels of standards," Kinzinger told CNN."I think he is absolutely guilty.

Then, on Dec. 21, the panel will release its long-anticipated final report, committee Chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson told reporters this week. Criminal referrals are nonbinding, and it will be up to law enforcement agencies to decide whether or not to move forward with criminal charges.
