Brennan said he expects 'the final indictments as well as the report to the attorney general” very soon.
Former CIA Director John Brennan has suggested that the final indictments in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation could be unveiled as soon as this Friday.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if, for example, this week on Friday—not knowing anything about it—but Friday is the day the Grand Jury indictments come down,” he added. “He hasn’t addressed the issues of criminal conspiracy,” Brennan said. Asked if was referring to conspiracy “involving the Russians,” Brennan replied, “Yes.”
“I thought at the time there were going to be individuals who were going to have issues with the Department of Justice, yes,” he responded. “And I think we’ve already seen a number of individuals who have been indicted, either have pleaded guilty or have been convicted now,” he added. “Bob Mueller and his team knows if he were to do something—indicting a Trump family member or if he were to go forward with indictment on criminal conspiracy involving U.S. persons—that would basically be the death of the special counsel’s office, because I don’t believe Donald Trump would allow Bob Mueller to continue in the aftermath of those types of actions,” Brennan explained.
