Giuliani associate Lev Parnas asks AG Barr to recuse himself from case.
The letter was faxed to Barr days after Parnas spoke out publicly for the first time about his role assisting Giuliani in pushing Ukrainian officials to launch an investigation of Joe Biden.
The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment or confirm that they received the letter. A spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York declined to comment on Bondy's letter. Parnas and a second man, Igor Fruman, were carrying one-way tickets to Vienna when they were arrested at Dulles Airport outside of Washington on Oct. 9.
