Andrew Weissmann.... The dirtiest of Mueller's people

He's a dirty "cop"
This is the man going after Trump.
quote:
Today, Mr. Weissmann stands as special counsel Robert Mueller’s top gun in a squadron of nearly 20 prosecutors and scores of FBI agents delving into Trump-Russia. Mr. Weissmann is leading the probe into the biggest target to date, Paul Manafort, President Trump’s onetime campaign manager.
How Mr. Weissmann operated over a decade ago offers possible glimpses at how he carries out orders today from his longtime mentor, Mr. Mueller.
He's a dirty "cop"
quote:
The backstory: Defense attorneys say Mr. Weissmann bent or broke the rules. As proof, they point to appeals court decisions, exhibits and witness statements.
They say he intimidated witnesses by threatening indictments, created crimes that did not exist and, in one case, withheld evidence that could have aided the accused. At one hearing, an incredulous district court judge looked down at an Enron defendant and told him he was pleading guilty to a wire fraud crime that did not exist.
This is the man going after Trump.
quote:
Mr. Weissmann’s cases against Andersen and Merrill Lynch lay in shambles just a few years later.
The Supreme Court, in a 9-0 vote in 2005, overturned the Andersen conviction. A year later, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals erased all the fraud convictions against four Merrill Lynch managers. The jury had acquitted another defendant.
“People went off to prison for a completely phantom of a case,” said Mr. Kirkendall.

Makes sense, they have no proof but seems like the would make up a "crime" to get rid of Trump.

Sekulow is in for a hell of a fight against these aholes.

What ethnicity is this guy? Can't quite put my finger on it.

One good look at him and he strikes me as that nerd that got bulled too much in high school and now he's an authoritarian dickehead addicted to power.

No, he's Jewish so he is immune from criticism.

Who wants to give me odds that he'll hold one?

Sounds like Mueller himself.

What makes more sense is that you idiots, in an attempt to spare your fragile egos, are making up a convoluted story as to why Trump and his people aren't dirty.
Man Trump was right. He said that he was so popular he could get away with shooting a man in plain sight in front of his supporters and he is right

Why does our legal system put up with corrupt prosecution?

Wonder if he will frick this up like he did Enron?
You will know when he fricks up. That will be when he quits and runs

Better question = Why would Mueller choose him to be his top dog???

this is all about the elites, elite politicians of both parties, elite media, elite power brokers, elite lobbyist, etc
Trump is not considered one of the elite and is a threat to them

Maybe, but you see, he's OUR dirty guy. You had your eight years of YOUR dirty guy. Now sit back and enjoy your own medicine.

Ahhh, the personal and silly attempts to discredit the prosecutors continue. Are the attacks on Mueller not working fast enough?

What percent of Mueller’s team is Jewish?
