Supremes Tackle J6 Cases

The Supreme Court scheduled conferences for Dec. 1 to discuss whether to accept two appeals, one of which involves an off-duty federal agent who carried his service pistol and credentials onto the Capitol grounds on Jan. 6, 2021, and the other which involves the Justice Department’s use of an evidence-tampering law in Capitol riot cases.
