The U.S. Supreme Court could upend more than 330 criminal cases and strike down the most potent weapon in the Department of Justice’s arsenal against January 6 protesters.
The nation’s highest court on Dec. 13 took up a challenge to the felony the Justice Department uses most frequently to charge Jan. 6 defendants. The court granted certiorari to a petition of appeal from Joseph Fischer, 57, a Jan. 6 defendant from Jonestown, Pennsylvania.
