ACJ EXCLUSIVE: The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) has begun its own, internal investigation into the relationship between its ICAC unit and OUR.
The Utah Attorney General’s Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force has broken off its partnership with Operation Underground Railroad (OUR). It comes after the Davis County Attorney’s Office launched a criminal investigation into OUR, part of which targets the Utah AG’s ICAC Task Force. This video report also discloses that the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) has begun its own, internal investigation into the relationship between its ICAC unit and OUR. The internal probe is particularly awkward because Utah’s Attorney General Sean Reyes is closely connected to OUR and its CEO, Tim Ballard. In essence Reyes is not only under investigation by an outside prosecutor, but also by one of his own investigators.
