Former White House advisor convicted of contempt of Congress

Reporting cited here

1. charged

   A federal grand jury indicted Navarro on two counts of contempt of Congress after he did not produce documents by February 23 or appear on March 2 in response to the January 6 committee's subpoena. Navarro claimed executive privilege; courts later found he did not prove Trump had invoked it. At indictment, the counts were allegations and Navarro remained presumed innocent.

2. convicted

   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.
