Ex-Dem IT aide Imran Awan’s case hit with repeated delays, as feds probe new allegations
Fox News ^ | 5/04/18 | Alex Pappas

The federal court case against Imran Awan, the former IT aide to congressional Democrats, has been hit with repeated delays over the last six months -- a situation fueled by allegations in the media that, according to his attorney, have piqued the curiosity of prosecutors.

**SNIP**

A grand jury in August returned an indictment in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia charging Awan and his wife, Hina Alvi, with a total of four counts, which included federal bank fraud and conspiracy. Awan has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

The facts of the case on paper are relatively mundane. Awan and his wife are facing allegations they engaged in a conspiracy to obtain home equity lines of credit from the Congressional Federal Credit Union by giving false information about two properties – and sending the proceeds to individuals in Pakistan.

But the case has drawn interest from Republican lawmakers because of Awan’s role for prominent Democrats and the access he had to sensitive data. The Daily Caller has published numerous news stories suggesting Awan inappropriately accessed congressional servers while working for Democrats.

Gowen dismissed those stories as “lies.” “I know that my client did not have access to any confidential or security clearance documents,” he said.

Uh, oh. The Hillary defense? That's trouble.

Why in the world can’t we hit the entire family with espionage charges and shoot them at dawn...after a fair trial, of course.

The wheels of justice are grinding along so slowly in this case. As in every other important case dealing with sedition and treason. It’s almost as if the Fed gov is trying to run down the clock on all the sordid obama messes.

It is not “the wheels of justice” that is the problem. The Brown Shirt Media is ignoring this story as hard as they can.

There are plenty of congressional insiders who do not want information about the spying and criminal activity of Imran Awan and his family to ever see the light of day.

Why would congressional Democrats with access to classified information hire a Pakistani muslim as their IT tech in the first place?

Was it because he was willing to do a dirty job that Americans wouldn’t do?

Was he cleared to work in a sensitive job where he would have access to classified information and personal/insider information on congressmen and women?

Who gave him clearance or approved his employment?

How much about his criminal activity did Debbie Wasserman Shultz know and when did she know it?

That's the BILL defense, to you.

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is."

Note the phrasing was *documents* (e.g. *paper*). It says nothing of the servers and their electronic contents.

Why was a 22-year old kid (or some very young age, anyway) getting paid $160,000 / year?

This whole case and the complacency by the members of congress being exploited by this guy and his relatives shows the absolute filthy depths of the “deep state” BS in this government!

Was it because he was doing a little side job for Debbie Washerman Shultz?

Something more personal than stealing info from her computers?

Why did she go to such extremes to protect him and keep him on thepayroll even after his criminal activities were known?

Sure have to wonder IF the Awans ‘server’ was connected to Hillry’s server? I call the Awan spy case ‘blackberries’.

I think the whole democrat apparatus were connected to collect 'intel' for sale to the highest bidder. The object that connected Congress and the Executive branch were 'blackberries'.

Why the Pakistani did is largely irrelevant. I want to know what the Dems did. Let’s see Wasserman Schultz’s PC.

I also think that 'cash for clunkers' was by design to assist car companies like the C.I.A.

"....How much about his criminal activity did Debbie Wasserman Shultz know and when did she know it?..."

Debbie Mayonnaise Hair was the mastermind behind this whole congressional IT scheme. She's up to her eyeballs in this.

Remember her berating and threatening the DC Capitol police on camera telling them to give her back that laptop or else? They said "No" because it is evidence in a crime.

The congressional democRATS had not only a spy among them, but a thief and DWS' favorite "guy" in their midst for years, unbeknownst to them.
