A federal lawsuit filed in San Diego against the U.S. Department of Justice alleges the FBI violated the law by withholding non-exempt records about Jan. 6 shooting victim Ashli Babbitt and her husband, Aaron.

Judicial Watch Inc., which on Jan. 5 filed a $30 million lawsuit against the United States government for what it called the “ambush murder” of Ms. Babbitt by U.S. Capitol Police on Jan. 6, 2021, asked the federal court to compel the FBI to release all documents related to the Babbitts.
