DOJ to Release Names of FBI Agents Involved in Jan 6th Investigation; Agents Given Two Days’ Notice
In response to concerns over the safety of FBI employees, a court order prevents the Department of Justice from publicly releasing a list of agents involved in January 6th investigations, including those working on the Trump case. This agreement, reached after a lawsuit filed by FBI employees and their union, mandates a two-day notice period before any dissemination of the list to any entity, including the White House or DOJ itself. The order stems from fears of targeted harassment and violence should the identities of these agents be revealed. This temporary measure allows the court to further consider the matter before a final ruling on a preliminary injunction.
