Special counsel Robert Mueller is examining what role, if any, former national security adviser Mike Flynn may have played in a private effort to obtain Hillary Clinton’s emails from Russian hackers, according to people familiar with the matter.
The effort to seek out hackers who were believed to have stolen Mrs. Clinton’s emails, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, was led by a longtime Republican activist, Peter W. Smith. In correspondence and conversations with his colleagues, Mr. Smith portrayed Mr. Flynn as an ally in those efforts and implied that other senior Trump campaign officials were coordinating with him, which they have denied. He also named Mr. Flynn’s consulting firm and his son in the correspondence and conversations.

Упомянутый Питер Смит погиб (по официальной версии покончил с собой) 14 мая 2017, через несколько дней после того, как на него вышли репортеры Wall Street Journal. Одна из последних записей в его блоге: “Former acting Attorney General Sally Yates gave a very slick performance as she pushed an unbelievable narrative of Lt. Gen (Ret.) Mike Flynn being blackmail-able, without ever stating a crime that he committed.‘
