A federal grand jury charged Bannon with two counts under 2 U.S.C. § 192 after he defaulted on a September 23 subpoena: one count for documents and one for deposition testimony. The indictment recited his private-citizen status and January 5 activities. Charging did not establish guilt; the later jury conviction and appellate affirmance supplied that adjudication.
