Wasserman Schultz Threatened Police Chief For Gathering Evidence On Her IT Staffer’s Alleged Crimes
The Daily Caller ^ | 5/23/2017 | Luke Rosiak

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz threatened the chief of the U.S. Capitol Police with “consequences” for holding equipment that she says belongs to her in order to build a criminal case against a Pakistani staffer suspected of massive cybersecurity breaches involving funneling sensitive congressional data offsite.

The Florida lawmaker used her position on the committee that sets the police force’s budget to press its chief to relinquish the piece of evidence Thursday, in what could be considered using her authority to attempt to interfere with a criminal investigation.

The Capitol Police and outside agencies are pursuing Imran Awan, who has run technology for the Florida lawmaker since 2005 and was banned from the House network in February on suspicion of data breaches and theft.

“My understanding is the the Capitol Police is not able to confiscate Members’ equipment when the Member is not under investigation,” Wasserman Schultz said in the annual police budget hearing of the House Committee On Appropriations’ Legislative Branch Subcommittee.

Of course it is, she approved the security clearances for the Awans and he recently said there’s evidence they are still being paid by her.

She is in it right up to her curly greasy plastered-down bleached eyebrows.

what could be considered using her authority to attempt to interfere with a criminal investigation.

They don't want to use the phrase "obstructing justice" because they're actively using that against President Trump, and they don't want to show what actual obstruction of justice looks like, especially when it is coming from the former chair of the DNC during the election the Democrats are still contesting?

Brazile warns off PI.
One of the `rats favorite tactics, projection: accusing others of doing what they do, like liars who suspect everyone else of lying.
Clinton and Podesta are in this up to their elbows and their MSM is complicit. Now they sharpen their knives for Sean Hannity.

As an IT administrator Awan has access to everything.

He / she may be the Wikileaks source as much as Seth Rich.

You really would think that liberal, secular Jews would be in the very front line of ruthlessly carving up and zealously tearing out even the tiniest traces of Muslim Espionage in America.

But here instead we see them desperately **harboring and rotecting them**..!

I find that suicidal.
