The Justice Department's handling of former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn's case is a 'gross abuse of prosecutorial power,' a court-appointed attorney and former judge wrote in a searing 82-page analysis

The Justice Department's handling of former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn's case is a"gross abuse of prosecutorial power," a court-appointed attorney and former judge wrote in a searing 82-page analysis on Wednesday.

The court-appointed lawyer John Gleeson also argued that Flynn should be sentenced for lying, including for perjuring himself in court for admitting his crimes then disavowing them.Gleeson, looking at Flynn's full case record, reasoned that the Justice Department's recent support of Flynn is so politically advantageous to President Donald Trump and atypical for prosecutors, it's undermined the public's trust in the rule of law.

Justice Department showed 'gross abuse of prosecutorial power' in Michael Flynn case, court-appointed arbiter saysRetired federal judge John Gleeson said DOJ 'had abdicated' its responsibility by attempting to provide special treatment to a presidential ally. In other words deadbeat donald and his puppy dog Barr are crooks. Lock them up. How come? Muller investigation was based on lies and was not able to provide a single evidence of collusion. I would beg to differ. I'm no admirer of General Flynn, but I know how contrived and toxic to critical diplomacy the anti-Russia xenophobia is. J.F.K. devoted his life to preventing war between Russia and the U.S.A. but they made it a crime to speak with Russia's envoy. Shameful!
