CNN had more details:

Republicans on Capitol Hill are asking the Justice Department to consider bringing criminal charges against Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide in President Donald Trump’s first administration who became a star congressional witness about the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, according to two sources familiar with recent developments.

GOP Rep. Barry Loudermilk made a criminal referral of Hutchinson to the Justice Department in recent days, the sources said. He accused Hutchinson of lying to Congress in her summer 2022 testimony when she alleged Trump was aware of the potential for violence on January 6, 2021, and forged ahead with his attempts to rile up his supporters.

Loudermilk has long attempted to reframe the public perception of the events at the Capitol, including by scrutinizing the House committee that investigated the Capitol riot and found Trump was “directly responsible” for the riot. Loudermilk’s referral was co-signed by House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, who chairs the committee under which Loudermilk is running a probe of January 6.

The Justice Department’s press office didn’t respond to inquiries about the referral. Both current and former lawyers for Hutchinson didn’t respond to multiple inquiries this week from CNN. CNN has reached out to Loudermilk for comment.

It’s not uncommon for Congress to make criminal referrals regarding witnesses that have come before it previously, especially in heavily charged political situations, and referrals don’t necessarily lead to charges. A referral at times could add to a criminal investigation or prompt one. They are often treated by the Justice Department as suggestions.

A referral and possible Justice Department action against Hutchinson could refocus attention on a fraught aspect of the work years ago of the House Select Committee and prosecutors. It also comes a time when the Trump administration has pursued politically charged criminal cases against former government figures whom Trump considers opponents.

Hutchinson has drawn scrutiny for years

Hutchinson, 29, was the top aide to former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows at the end of the first Trump administration. The select committee created by then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi considered her a key eyewitness to several episodes leading up to January 6, in addition to witnessing some of Trump’s real-time reactions that day.

Her testimony drew significant blowback from Republicans. Justice Department prosecutors under former President Joe Biden’s administration interviewed her during their inquiry into Trump and other powerful Republican figures — and took some of her accusations seriously, sources familiar with the probe at the time have told CNN.

Hutchinson testified she had heard a secondhand account that Trump was so enraged at his Secret Service detail for blocking him from going to the Capitol on January 6 that he lunged to the front of his presidential limo and tried to turn the wheel.

A Secret Service agent and White House deputy whom Hutchinson said were also aware of the story have said they don’t remember it.

Remember this?

Trump Slams Claim He Attacked Secret Service Agent

The January 6th committee's special witness was a complete joke.

Former Mark Meadows staffer Cassidy Hutchinson testified before the January 6th Committee and claimed that President Trump lunged towards the steering wheel of the presidential vehicle he was in and proceeded to attack a secret service agent

Hutchinson would go on to say Trump lunged at the agent because he told him to drive towards the Capitol but the secret service agent refused due to not having a security clearance.

Trump responded to Hutchingson's claims and stated "Her fake story that I tried to grab the steering wheel of the White House limousine in order to steer it to the Capitol is "sick" and fraudulent, very much like the Unselect Committee itself - Wouldn't have even been possible to do such a ridiculous thing."

The Daily Mail shared these details:

'I'm the effing president, take me to the Capitol now,' she said he ordered.

When Secret Service refused, Hutchinson said agents told her that he lunged at the steering wheel of his car - known as The Beast.

'Sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel. We're going back to the West Wing, we're not going to the Capitol,' Hutchinson was told Secret Service agent Robert Engel said.

'Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel,' Hutchinson recalled.

Former Deputy Chief of Staff Tony Ornato 'motioned toward his clavicle,' she added, as a sign the president went for his security detail's throat.

Trump denied Hutchinson's testimony in a statement on his social media platform, Truth Social.

'Her fake story that I tried to grab the steering wheel of the White House limousine in order to steer it to the Capitol is "sick" and fraudulent, very much like the Unselect Committee itself - Wouldn't have even been possible to do such a ridiculous thing.

The New York Post shared these details about Hutchinson being denied a job at Mar a Lago:

Cassidy Hutchinson went from obscure former White House aide to one of the star witnesses of the Jan. 6 hearings by dropping bombshell allegations during Tuesday testimony about the behavior of President Donald Trump during the day his supporters stormed the Capitol.

Before she became a household name, though, she burst into tears of joy when she landed an internship in the White House during Trump’s presidency.

But there was a falling out between Hutchinson and Meadows in 2021, a former White House aide told CNN. She was supposed to become permanent staff at Mar-a-Lago, but those plans fell through, the outlet reported.
