Live Q&A: Sussmann Found Not Guilty in Trial w/ Big Conflicts of Interests; Fmr FBI Agent Explains
Hillary Clinton lawyer Michael Sussmann was acquitted by a jury on May 31. He was charged with lying to the FBI when claiming he didn\u2019t work for any specific client, as he was working for the Clinton campaign and was spreading false information of a covert communications channel between the Trump Organization and Russia\u2019s Alfa Bank.
The decision, however, has shown a spotlight on conflicts of interest both with the judge and the jury in the trial. The judge had close personal ties to the case, and members of the jury included three people who donated to Clinton, and a woman whose daughter is on the same sports team as Sussmann\u2019s daughter.
We also invite former FBI agent Marc Ruskin to comment on the case brought forward by Special Counsel John Durham and the acquittal decision. Ruskin is a former undercover agent, and is the author of \u201cThe Pretender: My Life Undercover for the FBI.\u201d
