Judge Perry FORCES Top Prosecutor to Testify!!
A federal judge in Chicago just ordered the city's top federal prosecutor — and three of his own lawyers — to testify under oath. And now one of those prosecutors wants to cross-examine his own boss. On Monday, 2 November 2026, Judge April M. Perry ordered U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros and Assistant U.S. Attorneys William Hogan, Matthew Skiba and Andres Almendarez to take the stand on 16 November 2026 at 9:00 AM, over whether willful false statements were made to the court in the collapsed "Broadview Six" case. Let's take a look at what the judge actually ordered, why the grand jury said no twice, why the former Chicago FBI chief is suing the Justice Department, and what happens on 9 and 16 November.
