As congressional investigators increasingly scrutinize the performance of the U.S. Capitol Police surrounding the Jan. 6 attacks, a whistleblower says he worries the department is getting off too easy

.

A committee staffer asked the whistleblower if a lawyer from the police department could be present for his interview, according to emails reviewed by POLITICO. The whistleblower said he found the suggestion troubling, as he did not know how the department learned he was slated to be interviewed. He said he told the staffer he would not participate in any meeting where department lawyers were present. No one from the department ultimately attended his interview, he said.

The whistleblower added that department lawyers are scheduled to attend future interviews the committee holds with department personnel. And a spokesperson for the Capitol Police said the department’s role in the attack was “exhaustedly examined by multiple reviews.”
