Mueller Eyes Gates
Sources indicated that Mueller had his eyes set on Gates, who he believed had crucial information that was helpful.
“Was he in the strategy meetings? No. But he was an implementer,” one person said of Gates. “He would be the kind of person who would probably know that.”
Gates agreement to co-operate with Mueller hadn’t produced what Mueller need but that could soon change.
If Gates could provide information that would be helpful the inquiry could become more problematic for some.
Gates had told with friends and family via email when he pleaded guilty.
“The reality of how long this legal process will likely take, the cost, and the circus-like atmosphere of an anticipated trial are too much,” he said.
