Mueller is Trying to Keep Evidence from Defendants in Russian Trolls Case
Law and Crime ^ | June 12th, 2018 | Colin Kalmbacher

Posted on 06/13/2018 9:18:00 AM PDT by detective

Special counsel Robert Mueller and his deputy Rush Atkinson filed a 14-page motion Tuesday arguing that the government shouldn’t have to release certain evidence to indicted Russian company Concord Management and Consulting LLC due to ongoing “interference operations” against the United States.

In the motion, Mueller’s team requested a protective order to: (1) keep other co-defendants named in the February 16 indictment from accessing the government’s evidence against them; and (2) to keep additional evidence under the control of government attorneys and away from Concord Management itself.

He should be dis-barred. So he is arguing that he has the right to commit a Brady violation?

He never thought they would show in court where he would have to go through discovery.

Making up crimes against innocent civilians, threatening lawmakers, surpressing information. The DOJ has now become the US KGB.

"He has NOTHING, and he doesn’t want us to know it even more than he doesn’t want the Russians knowing it."

I suspect the Russians are laughing their heads off...would love to hear their comedians on this.

You assume a federal judge would follow due process and the law as written. If he gets one of those immigration type judges we may get a whole new legal definition of Due Process by this judge and Mulehead.

One would think the FBI and DOJ would be trying to rebuild their shattered reputations for integrity at this point but they are doubling down on corruption with this total destruction of one of the basic foundations of our legal system. Throw in the threats against congressional staffers and you have to at this point question ANYTHING the DOJ or FBI does at any level, from espionage cases, to even their crime lab. They have shown they are corrupt and not to be trusted.

Now Mueller is saying that the defendants are not allowed to see the evidence of the crimes Mueller is charging them with.

Are they supposed to accept that because they are Russian?
It sure isn't acceptable under American jurisprudence.

So he’s going to use secret evidence against them? How very Soviet of him.

The Smily face is an emoji in Mac OS, it is just a font set to size 6. 😀

His motion should get him dis-barred immediately.
His very act of accepting the Special Persecutor gig despite blatant conflict of interest should have done that. But I second your motion.
