A federal prosecutor who helped lead the US Department of Justice’s investigation into the January 6 attack on Congress has resigned – and, in a new interview, he criticized Donald Trump’s decision to pardon or commute the sentences of about 1,500 people charged in connection with the Capitol attack, saying that it “sends a terrible message to the American people”.
Longtime assistant US attorney Greg Rosen, the former chief of the justice department’s Capitol siege section, sat down with CBS News after resigning over the weekend.
