After more than a year of investigation, a federal grand jury involving former U.S. Rep. Aaron Schock ( R-Illinois ) ended June 30 without indicting him.
"Our position has been and remains that while administrative errors may have been made during Mr. Schock's time in Congress, no aspect of this matter involves anything criminal," said George Terwilliger, Schock's lead attorney.
It was a case that involved, at one point, Schock's lawyers submitting approximately 3,000 recordsmost of them emails, text messages and documentsto federal prosecutors. Schock resigned from the U.S.
House of Representatives in March 2015 amid questions about his campaign and office spending. Schock is not free of possible federal charges, as a grand jury in Springfield could take up his case.
