John Durham builds case against Obama DOJ: 'This is how you work your way up the ladder
President Trump and legal scholars say the first prosecution from U.S. Attorney John Durham’s review of the Russian collusion probe has set the stage for more dramatic revelations, though the guilty plea in the first case didn’t add much to what was already known about the Obama administration’s Justice Department.
Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith is set to plead guilty this week to making false statements, admitting that he altered an email in early 2017 to say former Trump campaign aide Carter Page was not a source for the CIA, when, in fact, he was.
The false assertion was used by the Justice Department to obtain the third Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant for Mr. Page, keeping the FBI’s Russia probe alive.
Ensnaring Clinesmith on false statements charge may be nabbing low-hanging fruit. But veteran prosecutors say it is an important tool for federal investigators to compel key witnesses to tell the truth and flip, or face consequences.
“This is how you work your way up the ladder,” said Andrew Leipold, a law professor at the University of Illinois and a former member of the team assembled by independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr to investigate President Bill Clinton.
