Stupid question, I know, but how does an assault charge become a part of the FBI’s jurisdiction? What Federal law has been broken?
During the Clinton years, they made it a federal crime to impede anyone’s access to an abortion clinic, or something to that effect. Of course, interpretation of what constitutes “impeding” can vary. I think part of the complaint against Houck was that he had allegedly done something along those lines during the course of his protests at abortion clinics.
I asked the same thing on another thread.
Someone commented that it has something to do with a federal law about preventing access to an abortion clinic, a law that some say is automatically nullified since the feds no longer have jurisdiction over abortion.
“how does an assault charge become part of the FBI’s jurisdiction?”
Think they’re trying to charge him under FACE, that he somehow violated Clinton’s old Freedom Of Access To Clinic law.
Because protecting infanticide, sodomy, and mutilation of children is the main focus of the US DOJ
