DoJ John Durham Russian probe wrapping up, prosecutions unlikely
 [NYP] Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe is predominantly focused on the FBI, though the prosecution of top level officials appears "unlikely," according to a report.Sources familiar with the investigation told Fox News Monday that Durham completed the CIA portion of his probe last year, shifting recently to the activities of the FBI. One source told the network that Durham was pursuing "new and credible leads" through the end of the Trump administration without specifying further. A spokesperson for Durham declined to comment when reached by Fox, and did not immediately respond to The Post. Durham’s probe has led to the prosecution of one FBI official, lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who pleaded guilty last August to doctoring an email that led his agency to wiretap former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. Clinesmith was spared jail time and instead sentenced to one year probation and 400 hours of community service. Posted by: Besoeker 2021-02-03 |
