Federal investigation into false arrest of Phoenix woman continues one year later

It's been one year since U.S. lawmakers called for a federal investigation into the wrongful arrest of a Valley woman. ABC15 asked Arizona Congressman Andy Biggs for an update. He says he recently asked for a face-to-face meeting with OIG federal investigators. Biggs and Ohio Representative Jim Jordan both signed a letter in November 2024 demanding accountability after U.S. Marshals wrongfully arrested then 66-year-old Penny McCarthy outside her Phoenix home in March 2024.
