"I'm not in a position to to say that both because it's in draft form and we have not gone through the classification review. And so I need to be careful," he said.
U.S. Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz on Wednesday would not say how many U.S. government confidential human sources were among the protestors during the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, when pressed on the matter by a lawmaker on Wednesday.
Horowitz was asked if he has evidence of the number of confidential human sources that were operating on the Capitol grounds on January 6th.
In response, he said his forthcoming report will include "information in that regard."
Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., asked him how many there were in the crowd but Horowitz declined to provide that information.
"I'm not in a position to to say that, both because it's in draft form, and we have not gone through the classification review. And so I need to be careful," he said.
Horowitz was testifying on Wednesday at a House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government about FBI whistleblowers.
