House Oversight Committee withdraws Robert Mueller subpoena citing health concerns
[]
KWXX – Hilo, HI
The House Oversight Committee has officially withdrawn its request for former special counsel Robert Mueller to testify before the panel regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case, after receiving information about his health.
A committee spokesperson told ABC News: “We’ve learned that Mr. Mueller has health issues that preclude him from being able to testify.
The subpoena had been issued last month as part of a broader push to gather testimony from former Justice Department officials and others.
Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer noted in an August 5 letter that Mueller’s role as FBI director from 2001 to 2013 overlapped with investigations into Epstein, making his insights potentially valuable.
Additionally, the Oversight Committee has announced plans to release certain Epstein-related files it obtained from the Justice Department, with sensitive details redacted.
