How Robert Mueller Tried To Entrap Me

Silverglate: How Robert Mueller Tried To Entrap Me | WGBH News

Excerpt:

Years later, my wariness toward Mueller was bolstered in an even more revelatory way. When he led the criminal division of the U.S. Department of Justice, I arranged in December 1990 to meet with him in Washington. I was then lead defense counsel for Dr. Jeffrey R. MacDonald, who had been convicted in federal court in North Carolina in 1979 of murdering his wife and two young children while stationed at Fort Bragg. Years after the trial, MacDonald (also at Princeton when Mueller and I were there) hired me and my colleagues to represent him and obtain a new trial based on shocking newly discovered evidence that demonstrated MacDonald had been framed in part by the connivance of military investigators and FBI agents. Over the years, MacDonald and his various lawyers and investigators had collected a large trove of such evidence.

The day of the meeting, I walked into the DOJ conference room, where around the table sat a phalanx of FBI agents. My three colleagues joined me. Mueller walked into the room, went to the head of the table, and opened the meeting with this admonition, reconstructed from my vivid and chilling memory: ?Gentlemen: Criticism of the Bureau is a non-starter.? (Another lawyer attendee of the meeting remembered Mueller?s words slightly differently: ?Prosecutorial misconduct is a non-starter.? Either version makes clear Mueller?s intent ? he did not want to hear evidence that either the prosecutors or the FBI agents on the case misbehaved and framed an innocent man.)

I think that's a very valid point and likewise everything Trump has done since 1979 should be on the table in this investigation. Who gives a shit what he's doing now.. its what he said or did in 1979 onwards that counts right?

Wouldn't you agree?.. moron
