In reply to the discussion: MSNBC Breaking: Mueller says info was shared by defense attnys. with Russia [View all]Mr. Ected
(9,713 posts)Mueller disclosed the leak in a filing as part of his prosecution of Concord Management and Consulting, a Russian company that allegedly funded hacking operations by Russias notorious Internet Research Agency (IRA).
The filing argued that attorneys for Concord should not be given access to sensitive evidence gathered by Muellers team for the case.
It said: The person who created the webpage used their knowledge of the non-sensitive discovery to make it appear as though the irrelevant files contained on the webpage were the sum total evidence of IRA and Russian collusion gathered by law enforcement in this matter in an apparent effort to discredit the investigation.
NOTE he says "irrelevant files" were purported to be the sum total evidence of IRA & Russian collusion. In other words, Mueller set them up. Those files weren't pertinent, but they set a trap for the defense. Any surprise that the rats sprung the trap?
