A grand jury in Washington, D.C. declined to indict Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide, for her testimony regarding the January 6, 2021 Capitol insurrection. Hutchinson's testimony included claims that President Trump was aware of armed supporters and attempted to intervene in security measures. The Justice Department's efforts to secure an indictment faced scrutiny, with Republican lawmakers accusing Hutchinson of lying under oath.
