(Reuters) – U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller disclosed for the first time on Friday that his office has evidence of communications between Roger Stone, a longtime adviser to President Donald Trump, and WikiLeaks related to the release of hacked Democratic Party emails.
In a court filing on Friday, Mueller’s office said it had gathered that evidence in a separate probe into Russian intelligence officers who were charged by Mueller of hacking the emails during the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign and staging their release.
In an email criticizing media coverage of Mueller’s filing on Friday, Stone said the evidence was “innocuous Twitter direct messages” that have already been disclosed to the House Intelligence Committee and “prove absolutely nothing”.
Stone was indicted last month for lying to Congress about his communications with others about the hacked emails. Mueller did not say at the time that he had evidence of communications with WikiLeaks. Stone, an ally of Trump for 40 years, has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Stone has previously acknowledged brief exchanges with both WikiLeaks and Guccifer 2.0 but maintains he never had advance knowledge about the release of hacked emails. But Friday marked the first time Mueller indicated he had obtained related evidence, although it remained unclear if the evidence is more substantial than what is publicly known.
“The government obtained and executed dozens of search warrants on various accounts used to facilitate the transfer of stolen documents for release, as well as to discuss the timing and promotion of their release,” Mueller’s team wrote in a filing to the U.S. District Court in Washington D.C.
“Several of those search warrants were executed on accounts that contained Stone’s communications with Guccifer 2.0 and with Organization 1.”

Meuller personally handed over the uranium sample too.
And Roger Stone is conveniently under a gag order.
They do anything to cover for the fact that Seth Rich was murdered 15 days before Hillary was declared Prom Queen.
They know it was no accident and they know the Wikileaks stopped.
Somebody ordered the hit. I’m sorry, “botched robbery”.
There I go all tinfoil again.....
What happened to the gag order and the worry that the case would be prejudiced?
This is trial interference by Mueller and should by just cause to throw the case out.
So stone has a gag order to not prejudice the case.
But Mueller can say whatever he wants and prejudice the case?
Mueller is a jackbooted thug. And the judge in that case is a POS.
Mueller Says Searches Yielded Evidence Of (Perfectly Legal) Stone-WikiLeaks Communications>>>>>>>>>>>>>
As opposed to the fabricated , Clinton purchased Steele Dossier used to hoodwink a FISA courtm which was feloniously illegal.
Believe the gag order is only for the. Kurt house steps. Stone can give interviews on tv, Fabio, Internet etc.

Stupid spell check.
Weasel Mueller B illegally leaking again?
Mueller’s is a duplicitous traitor and domestic enemy of the nation.
He should be tried and executed.
Did the judge say anything about how the FBI directed the CNN News crew for the best camera angles and shots during their “secret” early morning hours million dollar raid?
President Trump has no such gag order. I can't wait to hear him tweet about this.
and? publish the emails or why make a comment at all?
Good point. Total nonsense. These 'gag orders' are totally unconstitutional. I hope Stone has the wherewithal to appeal that ruling... it will be expensive either way, and doing so will actually delay his the outcome of his case. But really something must be done to stop these courts from going too far.
Could some explain why these morons dont realize wikileaks did not get anythong ftom russian hackers it was all an inside job at the dnc?
Mueller and his team are under a gag order too. But, hey!, leaks happen...occasionally....daily...hourly.

I think you are interfering with the governments jury pool tampering program. Judge Amy may not like that!
Hate to say it, but Stone has already been found guilty and is going to jail. What’s going on now is just a formality. That’s how corrupt our courts are now. Imo
