Clinton 2016 Campaign Lawyer Michael Sussmann Acquitted of Lying to the FBI
SnopesAPR 2022
After three years of investigation, Durham was only able to bring a thin charge against Sussmann. This acquittal calls into question how long Durham can continue in this politically motivated probe that's fishing to prove right-wing, Trump-related conspiracy theories.
Just because a largely Democrat-leaning jury pool acquitted one of their own doesn't mean that this probe is at an end. The trial showcased evidence that Clinton was directly involved in an attempt to disseminate false information about Trump prior to the election and more cases are on the way.
