Chief U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro issued a scathing analysis of the government’s conduct, terming it “outrageous.”
“There has been flagrant misconduct, substantial prejudice and no lesser remedy is sufficient,” she said.
The charges were dismissed “with prejudice,” which means the federal government will not be able to retry the men.
The same judge declared a mistrial in the case late last month, citing prosecutorial misconduct.
One of the lawyers helping the family, Larry Klayman, founder ofFreedom Watch, earlier had written to Attorney General Jeff Sessions asking him to investigate the FBI’s actions and prosecute those who had misbehaved.
