Andy McCarthy: Mueller’s Not ‘Hell Bent’ on Making a Case Against Trump But He’s ‘Hell Bent’ on Getting to the Bottom of Russian Meddling
RUSH EXCERPT:
MACARTHY: "The documents are important. We need to remember the sequence of events. Mueller indicted this case based on the documents. Indicted Gates and manafort. It’s not like Gates came in and the documents pushed Gates into pleading guilty. The way they tried to approach this the prosecutors is to say the documents are the star witness. They know that the witness Gates is a problematic witness for them. The problem they have is the plea deal they gave Gates to come in was really a sweetheart deal. It’s tough for the prosecutors to look in the jury in the eye and say we don’t need this guy. We only brought him in because he tightens up our proof, but he is not that important. If he is not that important, why did you pay so much to get his plea?"
