"n FBI agent was relieved of duty for declining to arrange a perp walk of the bureau's former director, James Comey, in front of news media cameras after Comey was federally charged last month, four people briefed on the matter said on Friday. Reuters could not immediately determine how or when senior FBI officials wanted to stage bringing Comey into the bureau's Washington field office."
"On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, host Jonathan Capehart told viewers that MSNBC has confirmed an agent was fired over the perp walk that wasn't: JONATHAN CAPEHART: As former FBI director James Comey prepares for his arraignment in a federal courthouse later next week, there is more fallout from that indictment within the DOJ rank and file. MSNBC has confirmed that an FBI agent in the Washington field office has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp-walk Comey."
An FBI agent in the Washington field office was relieved of duty after declining to arrange a public perp walk for former FBI Director James Comey following his federal indictment. Comey was federally charged two weeks after President Donald Trump publicly pressured Attorney General Pam Bondi in a Truth Social post and in remarks to reporters. Only a court summons, not an arrest warrant, was issued, though defendants often report to an FBI field office for booking after a summons. Comey has denied wrongdoing and is due to appear in court in Alexandria, Virginia. Some FBI officials considered staging a photo op for the arrest, prompting internal resistance.
