The committee said on January 6 that it is working with the Department of Justice’s request for interview transcripts.

In response to a request from the Justice Department, the committee is in the process of releasing transcripts of the witness interviews it conducted. Currently, the panel is taking part in a cooperative effort with the Department of Justice.

They have no intention of addressing the intricacies of that topic in a public setting. This week, senior DOJ officials sent a letter to the committee, increasing the amount of pressure that is being placed on the panel to comply. The letter was included as part of a document that was submitted in response to a request that was made to postpone the trial of many defendants. A piece of witness evidence that was provided to the committee earlier this week included a brief reference of the name of one of the defendants in the case.
