The Justice Department has released a 2019 memo that put to rest any prosecution of former President Donald Trump over allegations contained in the Mueller report.
The memo was released after the group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington filed a Freedom of Information lawsuit. The DOJ opposed the request, but lost the case in court, NPR reported.
The result, the memo said, was that prosecution was not warranted.
“A fair evaluation of the special council’s findings and legal theories weighs in favor of declining prosecution,” the memo said.
