Roger Stone arrestado por el FBI y acusado por Mueller

Roger Stone fue arrestado y acusado por Mueller por obstrucción, manipulación de testigos y declaraciones falsas.

Esto es lo que sabemos:

FOX NEWS – Roger Stone, the colorful former longtime political adviser to President Trump, has been indicted on charges of obstruction, making false statements and witness tampering as part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s wide-ranging Russia collusion probe.

For months, Stone has warned that he could be indicted, saying in public he believed Mueller was investigating whether he had advance knowledge of WikiLeaks releasing hacked emails of Democrats during the 2016 campaign. Stone has repeatedly denied the accusation.

A spokesman for Mueller’s office said Stone, 66, was arrested in Fort Lauderdale on Friday morning after being indicted by a federal grand jury a day earlier.

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders, appearing on CNN, said Friday, “This has nothing to do with the president or the White House — has to do with that individual.”

Estos son un resumen de los charages. Tenga en cuenta que no tienen nada que ver con Wikileaks:

The 24-page indictment alleges that Stone worked to obstruct the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election by making false statements to the committee, denying he had records sought by the committee and persuading a witness to provide false testimony.

The indictment does not charge Stone with conspiring with WikiLeaks, the anti-secrecy website that published the emails, or with the Russian officers Mueller says hacked them. Instead, it accuses him of witness tampering, obstruction and false statements about his interactions related to WikiLeaks’ release.

The indictment says Stone spoke to Trump campaign officials during the summer of 2016 about WikiLeaks and information the organization had that might be damaging to the Clinton campaign. It also says Stone was contacted by “senior Trump campaign officials” to inquire about future WikiLeaks releases of hacked Democratic emails.

CNN obtuvo un video del FBI subiendo a la casa de Roger Stone en las primeras horas de esta mañana. No sé si estuvieron allí, se grabaron las imágenes o si lo obtuvieron de otra persona:

“FBI. Open the door.”

Así es de lo que hablarán los medios de comunicación durante todo el fin de semana a medida que comentan las conexiones de Stone con Trump y lo que esto podría significar para Trump.

Pero tenga en cuenta que en el artículo, Sarah Sanders declaró que esto no tiene nada que ver con Trump o la Casa Blanca.
