Trump official's husband won't face charges for sexual assault allegations: report

The husband of President Donald Trump's Secretary of Labor will not face federal charges for the allegations against him of sexual assault.

"Scoop: Feds won't charge Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer's husband after a DC police probe was launched into alleged sex assaults of female staffers — one of which was captured on a department security camera," reported Josh Christienson of the New York Post. "A spokesperson for DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro tells The Post, 'Based upon the evidence presented to this office in relation to the video, there is no indication of a crime.'"

"The Federal Protective Service, a subagency of the Department of Homeland Security that investigates crimes in government buildings, also declined to pursue the allegations last month, sources said," Christienson noted.

In at least one of the incidents, Dr. Shawn DeRemer was accused giving what the Post described as a "prolongued hug" to a woman in December, which was recorded by an office security camera.

Under Trump, the D.C. U.S. Attorney's Office similarly refused to pursue allegations last year against Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL), who was accused of domestic violence.

This comes after previous reporting that Dr. Shawn DeRemer was prohibited from entering the agency headquarters over the complaints from female staffers.

It also comes as Chavez-DeRemer, a former Oregon congresswoman nominated as part of a deal with Teamsters President Sean O'Brien, is facing her own allegations of impropriety, including that she had romantic liaisons with a subordinate, that she drinks heavily while in the office, and that she has fabricated fake official trips that allow her to visit family and friends at taxpayer expense.
