FBI Lawyer, Sussmann Met With, Sought Perkins Coie Job Sussmann passed along claims about Clinton presidential rival Donald Trump to FBI lawyer James Baker on Sept. 19, 2016, as well as data that supposedly supported the claims. Baker gave the information to others in the bureau, triggering an investigation. The FBI and CIA both determined the claims were unsupported. Baker, while testifying during the trial, described Sussmann as a friend whom he met when both worked for the Department of Justice (DOJ), the FBI’s parent agency. Baker, who left the bureau in May 2018, revealed that he was seeking to work for Perkins Coie, the firm that employed Sussmann, soon after.
