Grimm Charges Include Obstruction of Justice

The New York Times reports the anticipated charges against Rep. Michael Grimm (R-NY) “were expected to include mail fraud and wire fraud, and to focus largely on his conduct in connection with a health food restaurant he owned on the Upper East Side of Manhattan after he left the Federal Bureau of Investigation in 2006, two of the people said. He was also expected to be charged with obstruction of justice, for allegedly lying under oath in a federal lawsuit.”
