(Worthy News) – An unredacted, internal Department of Justice memo shows the rationale of its leadership in deciding not to prosecute then-President Donald Trump on obstruction of justice charges following the Mueller report’s publication.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) secured the memo’s release following a ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit that the DOJ improperly withheld the memo from the watchdog group, which had sued to obtain it.
Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) head Steven Engel and Principle Associate Deputy Edward O’Callaghan argue in the memo that because special counsel Robert Mueller discovered no underlying crime, there was little, if any, basis on which to prosecute Trump for obstruction of justice.
