The Supreme Court heard oral arguments from an attorney representing a Jan. 6 defendant regarding one charge some believe was taken out of context.
The charge “obstructing an official proceeding” section 18 U.S. Code § 1512 was created during the Enron scandal to punish someone who tampers with evidence or destroys it.
Jeffrey Greene, an attorney representing Joseph Fischer, a former Pennsylvania police officer who entered the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, argued the statute doesn’t apply to the case.
