"Peter Navarro's Contempt of Congress Trial Bid Denied by Court"

A federal judge rejected Peter Navarro's bid for a new trial after being convicted of contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate with the investigation into the U.S. Capitol attack. The judge ruled that Navarro failed to demonstrate any prejudice resulting from the jury's break outside the courthouse and that no juror was actually exposed to improper external influence. Navarro, a former Trump White House trade adviser, is scheduled to be sentenced later this month and has vowed to appeal the verdict.
