The United States Attorney’s Office in Washington, DC, is being accused of running interference for an ally of President Donald Trump, with the acting US attorney, Ed Martin, reportedly refusing to sign an arrest warrant sent by the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington D.C. for Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., who is being investigated over the alleged assault of a 27-year-old woman who is not his wife.
Both the Washington, D.C., police and the Metropolitan Police confirmed Monday that they were investigating an alleged assault by the Florida Republican, who has denied wrongdoing. Police reports obtained by News4, an NBC affiliate in the nation's capital, indicated that the alleged altercation began at a luxury penthouse apartment last Wednesday.
