Ex-Trump adviser must report to prison on 19 March for defying January 6 panel

Peter Navarro, sentenced to four months, was held in contempt by House, charged by DoJ and found guilty in September

Former Trump adviser Peter Navarro must report to prison on 19 March to begin a four-month sentence for defying the House January 6 committee, his lawyers said.

Navarro, 74, is an economist turned trade adviser who became closely involved in attempts to overturn Donald Trump’s defeat by Joe Biden in the 2020 election, attempts that culminated in the deadly attack on Congress of 6 January 2021.
