据四位了解大陪审团程序的消息人士透露，联邦检察官针对前白宫助理卡西迪·哈钦森的起诉申请未获通过，起诉理由与她就2021年1月6日美国国会大厦遭冲击事件所作证词相关。
美国司法部尚未回应置评请求。
《华盛顿邮报》率先报道称大陪审团决定不起诉哈钦森。
CBS新闻此前报道，美国司法部民事权利司一直在负责哈钦森案调查。周二在另一场案件听证会上，该司律师内维尔·赫德利对美国地方法官齐亚·法鲁基表示，大陪审团未就拟提起的起诉达成一致意见。赫德利未透露被告身份，但多位消息人士确认被告就是哈钦森。
哈钦森曾是白宫幕僚长马克·梅多斯的高级助理，2022年她在众议院调查2021年国会山骚乱事件的特别委员会面前作证时，激怒了特朗普的盟友及其基本盘。
哈钦森在证词和国会作证时称，1月6日当天，有人警告特朗普和梅多斯，部分支持者携带武器前往国会大厦，但特朗普表示不在乎，还试图下令移除当天上午他发表讲话的集会现场的磁力仪。
她还转述了时任白宫副幕僚长托尼·奥纳托告诉她的事情：特朗普在发表完对支持者的讲话后，因特勤局首席特工不肯开车送他去国会大厦而勃然大怒。在白宫椭圆广场的那场演讲中，特朗普曾鼓励支持者前往国会大厦——当时国会正在确认2020年大选的选举人团结果，他对支持者说：“结束这一切后，我们就往那里走，我会和你们一起去。”
哈钦森作证说，奥纳托告诉她，在车上时特朗普曾扑向方向盘。但特朗普的司机随后对此说法予以反驳，司机在宣誓作证时称，总统从未试图抢夺方向盘。
CBS新闻无法确定检察官正在审查哈钦森证词的具体哪些部分。根据媒体报道，是特朗普的众议院共和党盟友向司法部提交了相关举报。

Grand jury declines to indict Trump critic Cassidy Hutchinson over Jan. 6 testimony
October 27, 2026 / 6:39 PM EDT / CBS News
Federal prosecutors were rebuffed in their effort to secure an indictment against former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson over her testimony related to the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol, according to four sources briefed on the grand jury proceedings.
The Justice Department has not yet responded to a request for comment.
The Washington Post first reported that the grand jury declined to indict Hutchinson.
The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division has been handling the Hutchinson investigation, CBS News previously reported, and during a hearing on another matter Tuesday, a litigator with the division, Neville Hedley, told U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui that the grand jury had not concurred on the proposed indictment. Hedley did not say who the defendant was, but multiple sources confirmed it was Hutchinson.
Hutchinson, who was a top aide to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, angered President Trump’s allies and his base when she testified in 2022 before the House select committee investigating the 2021 Capitol attack.
In depositions and congressional testimony, Hutchinson said that Mr. Trump and Meadows were warned on Jan. 6 that some of his supporters were carrying weapons to the Capitol, but Mr. Trump said he didn’t care — and he tried to order officials to remove the magnetometers at the rally where he spoke that morning.
She also relayed a story she said had been told to her by then-White House deputy chief of staff Tony Ornato, in which Mr. Trump grew incensed after his lead Secret Service agent would not drive him to the Capitol after the president’s speech to supporters. During that address on the White House Ellipse, he had encouraged them to go to the Capitol, where Congress was confirming the Electoral College results from the 2020 election. He told supporters that “after this, we’re going to walk down, and I’ll be there with you.”
Hutchinson testified that Ornato had told her that in the car, Mr. Trump lunged at the steering wheel. Her account was later contradicted by Mr. Trump’s driver, who in sworn testimony claimed that the president never tried to grab the steering wheel.
CBS News could not determine precisely which parts of Hutchinson’s testimony were being scrutinized by prosecutors. According to media reports, House Republican allies of the president made the referral to the Justice Department.
