Analysis: What to expect when you’re expecting the Mueller Report
By Aaron Blake Aaron Blake Senior political reporter, writing for The Fix Email Bio Follow March 21 at 11:21 AM One of the strange realities of the long-awaited Mueller report is this: It could be one of the most anti-climactic moments in modern politics. We will know when the report has been sent to the Justice Department. And that could be about it, unless it comes with indictments.
He added, though, that he “has some flexibility and discretion in terms of the attorney general’s report.” Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6 says that details of the investigation must be kept secret unless they are revealed as part of a court order related to an indictment or other proceeding. Grand jury rules prohibit the disclosure of information obtained via that method — a method Mueller has undoubtedly used extensively — unless actual charges are filed. And Barr will also have to review the report for any classified information.
