The Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division is reportedly seeking a grand jury indictment against former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson for allegedly lying to Congress.

The investigation, which was first reported by Punchbowl News, centers on whether Hutchinson provided false statements during her depositions or public testimony. The specific statements under scrutiny have not been officially confirmed, though her account of an incident in the presidential vehicle has been a point of public contention.
