Kathy Griffin Meets With Secret Service Agents For Over An Hour Of Questioning – Investigation Still Open

The hack of a comedian, Kathy Griffin, was rumored to be questioned by Secret Service[1] agents about an image she publicized in late May in which she is clutching what appears to be a decapitated bloody head of President Donald Trump.

Political reporter Yashar Ali said Monday that Griffin took part in an interview by the Secret Service for over an hour, with Ali claiming that the investigation is still open.

The interview went down a month after the incident when the Secret Service launched an investigation into “the circumstances surrounding the photo shoot” with photographer Tyler Shields.

Dmitry Gorin, one of Griffin’s attorney’s, told reporters last month she would do everything to cooperate with the Secret Service probe, an effort he felt was superfluous.

“She basically exercised her First Amendment rights to tell a joke…When you look at everything in the media, all the times entertainers make videos or express themselves in other ways, you’ve never seen an entertainer, let alone a comedian, be subject to a criminal investigation.”

Griffin got blistering criticism after publishing the grisly photo.

She posted a video with her ‘apology’ after people across the political spectrum said the photo was way out of league.

“I am sorry, I went too far. I was wrong.”

But the damage supposedly had already had its effect. The comedian lost a number of sponsorships and gigs right after the fallout began, including her role co-hosting CNN’s annual New Year’s Eve program alongside Anderson Cooper.

Trump rubbed it in tweeting that Griffin should be “ashamed of herself” for publishing the photo. He also claimed that his 11 year-old son Barron Trump was “having a hard time” with the image she had posted of his father.

Her and the left want it both ways. It’s freedom of speech when they talk, but plain hateful when conservatives do.

Screw her. Screw them.
