Topic: Jeffrey Berman

The panel analyzes a November 7, 2018, letter from U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Berman confirming compliance with federal statute 18 USC 3332. This law mandates that the U.S. Attorney present reports of federal crimes to a special grand jury, a process the panel claims is non-discretionary. The petition includes 57 evidentiary exhibits intended to prove that controlled demolitions were used to destroy the World Trade Center buildings.

The discussion explores the secretive nature of grand jury proceedings and the potential for future indictments of individuals or corporations. The Lawyers' Committee explains that while they are not privy to the current status of the 23-person jury, they are prepared to file a mandamus action if the U.S. Attorney fails to fulfill his legal obligations. The ultimate goal is a public report or criminal charges similar to those seen in high-profile federal probes.
