Jed Shugerman was quoted in the Washington Post about Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ role in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Trump-Russia investigation.
“I would guess that Mueller is less interested in this episode as the guilty act, and more interested in how it shows a pattern of corrupt intent,” opines Fordham law professor Jed Shugerman. He adds: “Repeatedly pushing Sessions to unrecuse is some of the evidence a prosecutor would use to give context of corrupt intent to those other more concrete obstructive acts. But there probably was sufficient evidence of corrupt intent already.”
