Summary

Years after they published the Mueller investigation findings, lawyers Aaron Zebley and Andrew Goldstein take the public behind the scenes. Zebley has served as an Assistant US Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia, an FBI agent, and chief of staff to Robert Mueller at the FBI. He’s now a partner at Wilmer Hale. Goldstein is the former chief of the public corruption unit at SDNY, and is now a partner at the law firm Cooley. They’re co-authors of the new book, Interference: The Inside Story of Trump, Russia, and the Mueller Investigation.  Plus, can prosecutors prove the second would-be assassin’s intent to kill former President Trump? How long is too long for legal briefs? And… can I ask you a question?  For show notes and a transcript of the episode head to: https://cafe.com/stay-tuned/trump-mueller-report-interference-zebley-goldstein/  Have a question for Preet?
