Rep. Angie Craig (D-Minn.), who was allegedly assaulted last week at her Capitol Hill apartment building, is now calling for changes related to how repeat offenders are prosecuted in the District of Columbia.

During an appearance on “CBS Mornings” that aired on Feb. 14, Craig claimed that the suspect, Kendrick Hamlin, assaulted at least a dozen people before he went on to attack her inside an elevator at her apartment building around 7:15 a.m. on Feb. 9.
