Ms. Munro-Leighton confessed to Committee investigators that (1) she “just wanted to get attention”; (2) “it was a tactic”; and (3) “that was just a ploy.” Potential violations of federal law include 18 U.S.C. §§ 1001 (materially false statements) and 1505 (obstruction).

Hey
@afneil was this woman ever central to the allegations during the hearings? Plenty of peripheral whackos around (e.g. wohl), hope you're not only retweeting one side.... -
You are missing the point. In today’s world, all allegations of this type have to be investigated and treated as credible. This consumes time and resources.

Ok, so here's the deal. Ms. Munro. TELL THE ENTIRE TRUTH (not a smidgen less) AND WE, THE PEOPLE WILL ENSURE FULL IMMUNITY FOR YOU. Do so in front of the public, name names and motives. Then shrink back into obscurity. We'll take it from there. DEAL?
