DOJ Moves FARA Probe to DC
March 18, 2019 4:11 pm
Federal prosecutors in Washington, D.C. have taken over a criminal investigation into whether former Obama White House counsel Gregory Craig failed to register as a foreign agent after the case was moved from New York in January, the New York Times reported Monday.
The decision to move the case from the Southern District of New York to D.C. comes as the Justice Department suggested it would step up prosecution of illegal foreign lobbying cases.
Craig faces allegations that he failed to register as a lobbyist for the Ukrainian government for work he did in 2012. Ukraine hired Craig and a team of attorneys from Skadden to write a report whitewashing the prosecution of one of the government’s top political opponents.
The New York Times reported that two other supposed subjects of the investigation — lobbyist Tony Podesta and Mercury Public Affairs — will remain with Manhattan federal prosecutors.
