A judge won't name the foreign government company that tried to fight the Mueller investigation
While Mueller’s office is winding up its work, prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington are now handling the grand jury fight, which has led to the company being held in contempt and assessed a fine of $50,000 a day.
At a hearing last week, Assistant U.S. Attorney David Goodhand told Howell that the grand jury investigation is “continuing robustly.” He did not elaborate.“The need for secrecy is heightened during an ongoing investigation and warrants redactions to preserve grand jury secrecy,” the judge wrote.on the grand jury showdown last October, when virtually all aspects of the litigation were shrouded in mystery, but signs pointed to Mueller’s involvement. After the dispute escalated to the D.C.
However, the identity of the country that owns the company has never been made public. The judge’s opinion is largely silent on whether that detail should remain under wraps, but she refers to the nation in question as “Country A,” suggesting she’s content to allow continued speculation on that point as well.
