Courtroom was silent after DOJ's admission, CNN reporter says



The full grand jury never reviewed the indictment it handed up against former FBI Director James Comey, interim US Attorney Lindsey Halligan conceded Wednesday.
In a shocking back and forth, prosecutors said that instead of presenting a new indictment to the grand jury after it declined to approve one of the counts, Halligan simply brought an altered version to the magistrate’s courtroom for the grand jury’s foreperson to sign. Comey’s attorney now argues that Halligan’s testimony indicates “there is no indictment” against his client.

CNN crime and justice correspondent Katelyn Polantz reports from the courthouse, and Wolf Blitzer speaks with former federal prosecutor and Politico Magazine senior writer Ankush Khardori. #CNN #News

but every time I watch a news clip with a remote reporter I get distracted by the obligatory bobble head in the field.

i wish that would end.
