Attorney General Jeff Sessions said after the arraignment hearing that federal charges against Wiggins include carjacking, shooting a gun while committing a violent crime, having that crime result in death, and being a convicted felon with a gun.
“At the Department of Justice, we back the women and men in blue. Violence against law enforcement officers — federal, state, local or tribal — will not be tolerated,” Sessions said in a joint announcement with U.S. Attorney Donald Cochran.
