Charges from Mueller for Russian Hacking may be Forthcoming

Not a lot of details here really, most of this could be deduced from what has been reported previously, but this is the first whiff of charges coming down the pike in the very near future.

Mueller eyes charges against Russians who stole, spread Democrats’ emails

WASHINGTON — Special Counsel Robert Mueller is assembling a case for criminal charges against Russians who carried out the hacking and leaking of private information designed to hurt Democrats in the 2016 election, multiple current and former government officials familiar with the matter tell NBC News

Mueller's consideration of charges accusing Russians in the hacking case has not been reported previously. Sources say he has long had sufficient evidence to make a case, but strategic issues could dictate the timing. Potential charges include violations of statutes on conspiracy, election law as well as the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. One U.S. official briefed on the matter said the charges are not imminent, but other knowledgeable sources said they are expected in the next few weeks or months. It's also possible Mueller opts not to move forward because of concerns about exposing intelligence or other reasons — or that he files the indictment under seal, so the public doesn't see it initially.

I'm going to go out on a limb (no, not really) and reaffirm my earlier predictions that there will in fact be charges brought by the Mueller team in regards to the Russian hacking/phishing of the DNC/DCCC/Podesta. Despite what people who follow the cryptic cold reading mumbo jumbo of "Q" may be inclined to think, forecasting some of these things ain't rocket science folks. In most cases, the writing is on the wall well in advance. It also helps if you ignore just about everything Sean Hannity "reports."

But doesn't this all come back to the fact that any Russians being charged would have to extradited anyway?

Seth Rich wasn't Russian was he?

Shhh, Mueller's job is to make sure everyone is looking somewhere else, not at the real cause of everything.

The speed that the DNC files were downloaded clearly proves that they weren't hacked remotely, but by a local USB transfer

Analysts believe the most important aspect in The Forensicator’s report is the “estimated speed of transfer (23 MB/s)” at which the documents were copied. Analysts say it’s “inconceivable” the DNC documents could have been copied at such speed from a remote location.

You're so scared of Q it's kinda adorable. You call out Mumbo jumbo Q and still you have the need to tell us that your predictions may come true. Attention whore much? You're practically craving any validdation and to be put it quite bluntly it's getting embarrassing. Well too bad Seth Rich is not a russian but hey i guess Mueller will charge people that can never be tried anyways like the evil russian bots. The DNC hack cover story was selfinflicted and no amount of made up russian hackers are going to change that. Well Mueller can do us all a huge favor when he and his team examine the DNC server but oh wait CROWDSTRIKE and the DNC fight tooth and nail to keep that from happening. That sucks.

Btw about Q if you don't have any idea what we are about because your ignorance is showing and it doesn't suit you.

Cant lay charges against a dead man for leaking DNC criminal activities...

Its beautiful how far this nonsense has come and sad how some still believe in this bullplop

Muellers not there to find answers. He is there to ensure no one asks questions of the DNC

Now now Ante doesnt like facts like that.Remember our local propaganda guru is only concerned with Russians ans Trump

What? More Russian citizens doing their assigned jobs. When will Russia file charges against the Americans doing their hacking jobs against Russia?

Mueller's gonna change a century of tradition.. Right.

Well this thread heated up quick haha. Can see some real passion in here.

Mueller will eventually have to play his cards, I'm curious as to what comes out of this all.... Strange times we live in.

Has Mueller interviewed CrowdStrike and examined the server yet?

This really is some sad joke.

Tied the Russia,Iran,China in to one giant conflagration of bull snip.

Then I'm going to call bull on that analysis. A quick search shows that the average download speed in Moscow is 22 mbps.

Forget about Hannity,
It's the charge sheets that Mueller has already made that tell something of a story to come just by the way they are carefully written in a sort of legalise way.
Everybody seems to think that the charges brought are mild, well they are not, and they are full of, 'left outs'

Some legal eagles have comments online about the charges, here's one..my under line added,

Diane Marie Amann, law professor, University of Georgia,

Especially intriguing are these words: “and their co-conspirators.” The words are repeated in all counts, in reference after reference to the named defendants. That repetition signals that this indictment presents only half a picture. Yet to come is the mirror image — the identification of and charges against co-conspirators.
Like the already-named defendants, those co-conspirators will be charged with knowledge of alleged crimes, unlike the “unwitting” persons whom this indictment says they exploited. And while resistance to international extradition may shield indicted Russians from US prosecution, it seems likely that some of the alleged co-conspirators will be Americans, fully subject to trial in the United States.

If Hannity, had half a clue, he would be all over legal opinions like this...before he even opened his gub, not to do so, he leaves himself open to eventual ridicule, knowing the usual spin you get from him...and Fox in general.

Here's the link to a half dozen more legal opinions, all identified.

Mumbo jumbo you say? That's pretty much all I garnered from your post.

I call bullsnip on that bullsnip call.

They put the US at 14.2

I know I've got over 150.

23 mb/ s is thumb drive speed 2.0

Didn't it come out that some of their efforts were in support of Democrat Bernie Sanders? If NBC News will fudge that detail what other "truths" might they take liberties with. Or are we to assume the APT28 hack and the fake social media botting were two separate and completely unrelated operations.
