Veteran political operative Roger Stone won’t cooperate with the House of Representatives panel that’s investigating the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol, and will invoke his Fifth Amendment right to not testify, Stone’s attorney has said.

His attorney, Grant Smith, said in a letter dated Dec. 6 that he won’t hand over documents to the committee, and he wouldn’t appear for a deposition, ABC News first reported.
