The United States Department of Justice dropped a bombshell on Tuesday, announcing that Dr. Richard Morens, one of Dr. Anthony Fauci's most trusted lapdogs, has been indicted for his starring role in the great COVID origins cover-up.
According to the DOJ press release, Morens was "charged with conspiracy against the United States; destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations; concealment, removal, or mutilation of records; and aiding and abetting." To his credit, he did not get indicted for pedophilia.
Morens spent 16 years as a top adviser in the NIAID's Office of the Director, from 2006 to 2022. That would be the same joint where Fauci ran the show from 1984 to 2022.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche had this to say about the indictment: "These allegations represent a profound abuse of trust at a time when the American people needed it most during the height of a global pandemic. As alleged in the indictment, Dr. Morens and his co-conspirators deliberately concealed information and falsified records in an effort to suppress alternative theories regarding the origins of COVID-19. Government officials have a solemn duty to provide honest, well-grounded facts and advice in service of the public interest not to advance their own personal or ideological agendas."
Gee, ya think?
FBI Director Kash Patel piled on in a separate statement: "Circumventing records protocols with the intention of avoiding transparency is something that will not be tolerated by this FBI. Not only did Morens allegedly engage in the illegal obfuscation of his communications, but he received kickbacks for doing so. If you have engaged in activity conspiring against the United States, we will not stop until you face justice."
At NIAID, a ton of the information those so-called "experts" possessed flowed through channels that Morens either controlled or had serious pull with. The indictment claims he used that perch to rig the data that eventually got spoon-fed to the public about COVID and where it really came from. Part of the game plan allegedly involved steering grant money away from any research that dared challenge the approved narrative. He and his crew also supposedly huddled up in emails to plot how to bury their manipulation so some pesky Freedom of Information Act request wouldn't expose them later.
"[I] learned from our foia [sic] lady here how to make emails disappear after I am foia’d [sic] but before the search starts," Morens explained in a Feb. 24, 2021, email. "Plus I deleted most of those earlier emails after sending them to gmail [sic]."

And he's a doctor [sic].
"[T]here is no worry about FOIAs. I can either send stuff to Tony [Fauci] on his private gmail [sic], or hand it to him at work or at his house," Morens wrote in an April of 2021. "He is too smart to let colleagues send him stuff that could cause trouble."
In yet another email from that same year, he told the recipients to just shoot the sensitive stuff straight to his Gmail account to skip the whole forwarding-and-deleting dance from his official accounts.
Even back in June of 2020, Morens was already thinking ahead about potential problems. "We are all smart enough to know to never have smoking guns, and if we did we wouldn’t put them in emails and if we found them we’d delete them," he wrote. Not very smart to put it in writing then, is he?
The DOJ press release notes that Morens could be looking at up to five years in prison for the conspiracy charge against the United States, plus up to 20 years on each count of destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations. He could also face up to three years for each count of concealment, removal, or mutilation of records. Any actual sentence if he's convicted will be up to a federal judge after checking the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines.

The chances of this clown actually serving and amount of serious time is highly questionable. They rarely go to prison even though that's where they belong.
The case was investigated by the FBI along with the Office of the Inspector General for the Department of Health and Human Services. It will be prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Joseph R. Baldwin and Bijon A. Mostoufi for the District of Maryland.
Finally, some accountability theater for the pandemic grift machine. About time.
