“In leaving Barr—who lacks the independence that the special counsel role was designed to preserve—to render judgment on the evidence and the law, Mueller abdicated his duty,' attorney David Kendall argued.
Attorney David Kendall, who represents both former President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, slammed Robert Mueller’s reasoning for not prosecuting Donald Trump and accused the special counsel of abandoning his duty.
Kendall wrote that the “failure to draw any conclusion on whether the president obstructed justice was a massive dereliction of the special counsel’s duty, and the report’s explanation of this failure is both incoherent and illogical.” Mueller’s indecision led Attorney General Barr and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to determined that there was insufficient evidence to prove the president committed a criminal offense.
The attorney general also later admitted to Congress that he did not personally review all of the underlying evidence before making the decision to clear Trump of obstruction of justice.
