Dershowitz: ‘Mistake’ for Mueller to Hire Lawyers Who Contributed to Clinton’s Campaign

EXCERPT:

DERSHOWITZ: "If part of the investigation is how the President treated Comey by firing him and firing him in the way that he did, Mueller has a potential conflict of interest. I knew them both when they were U.S. attorneys in Boston. They are close friends, they are close colleagues, they come from very similar backgrounds. The law presumes that everybody will be fair. I hope that everyone will be fair, but when you have a criminal prosecution that’s political, you have to be Caesar’s wife. You can’t give the other side any opportunity to accuse you of political partisanship, which is why I think it was a mistake for Mueller to hire essentially people who have been large contributors to the Clinton campaign."
