Claims and evidence

  1. factconvicted

    A D.C. federal jury found Navarro guilty on one count for refusing document production and one for refusing deposition testimony. The court had ruled he lacked sufficient evidence of a Trump invocation of executive privilege. The verdict is a criminal conviction, distinct from the committee's referral and from the later four-month sentence already recorded elsewhere in the corpus.
