Conservative defenders of President Trump, including former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), have raised recent concerns that Mueller’s portrayal of the Mifsud-Papadopoulos contacts doesn’t add up.
Roh told me the information he is preparing to share with Durham’s team from his client will accentuate those concerns.
Mifsud was a “longtime cooperator of western intel” who was asked specifically by his contacts at Link University in Rome and the London Center of International Law Practice (LCILP) — two academic groups with ties to Western diplomacy and intelligence — to meet with Papadopoulos at a dinner in Rome in mid-March 2016, Roh told me.
A May 2019 letter from Nunes to U.S. intelligence officials corroborates some of Roh’s account, revealing photos showing that the FBI conducted training at Link in fall 2016 and that Mifsud and other Link officials met regularly with world leaders, including Boris Johnson, elected today as Britain’s new prime minister.
A few days after the March dinner, Roh added, Mifsud received instructions from Link superiors to “put Papadopoulos in contact with Russians,” including a think tank figure named Ivan Timofeev and a woman he was instructed to identify to Papadopoulos as Vladimir Putin’s niece.
What we do know is that Attorney General William Barr and Connecticut prosecutor John Durham have opened a criminal investigation into the matter. Mifsud, the Maltese professor, who befriended former Trump campaign advisor George Papadopolous and informed him that the Russians had obtained Hillary Clinton’s missing emails is at the center of the controversy.
If anyone has answers into what really happened with the FBI’s investigation it would be him. It was allegedly Mifsud’s tipoff about the Russians having Clinton’s emails that was the beginning of the investigation. The former FBI officials stated that it was when Papadopolous discussed what he had been told by Mifsud with Australian Ambassador Alexander Downer that the counterintelligence investigation began. They bureau agents claimed it was the pretext to opening the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into the campaign on July, 2016.
But now we know different and there is enough information surfacing to suspect that Mifsud did not have ties to Russia but was a western intelligence asset, as suggested by his attorney Stephan Roh, in an article written by John Solomon.
“Lil Joey Mifsud is not sleeping with the fishes,” Tweeted Papadopolous. “More to come.”
But that'a the crux of the issue, hmmm?

My gut feel is that Mifsud is alive and cooperating -
Apparently cooperating by disappearing ... whats that say.
Why is he in hiding? Or speculated dead?

Mifsud is a key piece to this corrupt puzzle.
He is either is hiding or dead, it's either or.
I mean, national news outlets don't have a clue and Italians are speculating he is "80% sure he is dead". Wierd stat?
Secondly, the story updated with papa tweeting,
“Lil Joey Mifsud is not sleeping with the fishes,” Tweeted Papadopolous. “More to come.”
This was Dec 20, 2019.
Pappa seems to have a bit of extra info we don't have.

I don't believe Mifsud is cooperating with the U.S. because he's not willing to damage the other countries he represents either. I believe he went underground never to be heard from again so not to damage relationships between countries any further.
Attorney General William Barr and Durham recently flew to Rome to meet with Italian intelligence to obtain government information on Mifsud and listen to a secret recording of the elusive academic. Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said afterward he made clear to Barr and Durham that his country's intelligence services had no ties to Mifsud.

Joseph Mifsud met with Durham's team this past Summer (2019).

Unlike the Washington Post, the Washington Times has a good reputation.
"It's November 11, 2019, I'm Joseph Mifsud": this is how the registration arrived by mail to Corriere della Sera on Tuesday night. Two audio - one of 6 minutes and one of 50 seconds - in which a man who speaks in English says he is the teacher of the Link Campus in Rome involved in Russiagate and denies having ever had relations with the secret services. «I am a networker - he says - I make people meet. But I never had a relationship with the secret services and if any of the apparatuses approached me I was not aware that it was about this ». He explains that he "brought people together", but that he "never had access to confidential information" and that he "never conveyed confidential information".

He may have cut a deal with John Durham.
