From the team that brought you "alternative facts" comes "extraneous crime."

Roger Stone, a longtime adviser to Donald Trump and his former Washington lobbyist, expects he may be indicted by Special Counsel Robert Mueller. But, he cautioned, any such indictment would be for an “extraneous crime,” not for any involvement in Russian collusion in 2016.

On Sunday’s Meet the Press, Chuck Todd noted that two of Stone’s associates have been subpoenaed recently and asked Stone if he was preparing to be indicted.

“I don’t know if I’m an interesting person or a person of interest,” Stone replied, complaining of leaks and terrorizing of “at least eight of my current or former associates, mostly young people,” by Mueller’s investigation.

“It is not inconceivable now that Mr. Mueller and his team may seek to conjure up some extraneous crime pertaining to my business, or maybe not even pertaining to the 2016 election.” he added. “I would chalk this up to an effort to silence me.”

The investigators are "spies" or "conjurers". When it's one of us, it's an investigation, and then repeat as needed.
