Fauci's lawyers set up legal defense fund as US probes multiply
The trust will cover document review and subpoena responses as Fauci faces probes in three states and possible lengthy legal proceedings.
- Lawyers for Anthony Fauci launched a legal defense fund to address mounting state and federal investigations regarding his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, citing the need for substantial resources to respond to legal proceedings.
- Republican lawmakers have intensified scrutiny of pandemic origins, with three state attorneys general launching probes into Fauci's guidance and decision-making during the health crisis.
- Probes include investigating whether Fauci "personally profited off the COVID 'guidance' he issued," while former adviser David Morens pleaded guilty on Tuesday to conspiring to conceal government documents related to research funding.
- Managed by an independent corporate trustee, the fund will cover legal costs across multiple states while ensuring Fauci receives no payments, with remaining funds distributed to charity upon litigation conclusion.
- David Schertler, counsel to Fauci, called the investigations "shameful harassment" of an "honorable man," vowing to fight back despite the preemptive pardon issued by President Joe Biden in 2025.
