## Resource

The Broadview Six defendants are demanding a special counsel to investigate Justice Department officials in Chicago and Washington D.C. for criminal contempt, following the collapse of their case due to alleged prosecutorial misconduct. Defense attorneys argue the misconduct extends beyond one prosecutor and that an outside probe is essential to avoid blame being pinned on a single individual. Judge April Perry, stunned by grand jury transcripts, has signaled openness to other investigations, while prosecutors quietly agreed to cover legal fees—a move the defense interprets as an attempt to dodge damaging records. With briefings extending into late July, a ruling could take weeks, but the stakes are high: the future of judicial integrity hangs in the balance.
