Robert Mueller ne recommande pas la prison pour Michael Flynn

Une fois de plus il faut lire l'ensemble des déclarations pour bien comprendre la suggestion de l'équipe de Robert Mueller. Michael Flynn est "récompensé" pour sa collaboration et ses renseignements permettent la poursuites de quelques enquêtes. Des messages dirigés vers Paul Manafort qui a menti plus d'une fois à Mueller, mais également à l'entourage de Donald Trump.

 "In the memo, Mueller asked a judge that former national security adviser Michael Flynn serve no prison time for lying to the FBI in early 2017 because of his “substantial” cooperation with the Justice Department since last December. But the memo was just as notable for what it didn’t say as what it did—details about Flynn’s cooperation with Mueller’s team as part of the investigation into a potential conspiracy between President Trump’s campaign and Russia are blacked out, as are details about an ongoing criminal investigation to which Flynn is providing assistance. Among the redactions: what Flynn told the special counsel about the Trump transition team’s interactions with Russian government officials.

Mueller acknowledged in the memo that the investigations Flynn assisted in are “ongoing,” but that it’s nevertheless appropriate to move forward with Flynn’s sentencing because his “sufficient information is available” to assess the extent of his cooperation."
