Special Counsel Team Gives Update on Evidence Not Offered by DOJ Inspector General’s Office
Special Counsel John Durham’s team said in a court filing Friday offered additional context on a previous filing that described how the team learned of evidence in the possession of the Department of Justice’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) that was seemingly withheld from investigators.
The evidence, which includes two cellphones used by former FBI lawyer James Baker and forensic reports analyzing the phones, only came to light in January.
Baker, who was the subject of a criminal leak investigation for “unauthorized disclosures to the media” but left his position without being charged, is a key player in the prosecution of longtime Clinton lawyer Michael Sussman, who Durham’s team charged with lying to the FBI.
In the Jan. 25 filing in Sussman’s case, Durham’s team said it asked the OIG for materials last year but was not told of the phones and forensic reports.
