The U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington, D.C. is reviewing a possible criminal case against Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) after a conservative reporter accused her of assault following a heated interaction on Capitol Hill last week.
The controversy began on March 25, when Charles Downs, a reporter aligned with right-wing commentator Laura Loomer, confronted Crockett while recording on his phone, according to Raw Story. Downs claimed he was asking the congresswoman about her stance on Tesla when she allegedly scratched him while attempting to block his camera.
