'Not a credible person': Ex-prosecutor slams ex-Proud Boys leader's potential lawsuit

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio is threatening lawsuits, and one ex-prosecutor explained how that would look.

Former Department of Justice white-collar crime prosecutor Ankush Khardori appeared on MSNBC on Sunday, and was asked about Tarrio and his threats.

"You know, you mentioned Tarrio. He says he wants to sue. Sue who? What kind of legal relief can he expect?" the host asked.

Khardori responded, saying of Tarrio, "This man is not a reliable or credible person."

"So who knows what he will actually do? However, if he wanted to actually try to sue someone, he could, in theory, try to sue officials in the federal government for allegedly violating his due process rights in connection with the investigation and prosecution. I have seen no reason to believe any kind of lawsuit like that would be remotely credible, but he's been emboldened," he added. "Clearly, I would be emboldened, too, if I had committed a terrible crime like seditious conspiracy, and then the president freed me. I'm not surprised he's going around making threats."
