Former Trump Advisor Cowers To Mueller

Former Trump campaign adviser Rick Gates is reportedly preparing to accept a plea deal with the special counsel’s office.

Gates has been in negotiations with Mueller’s prosecutors for roughly a month, according to CNN. He was indicted in October along with his business partner, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

Gates and Manafort were indicted for money laundering and other crimes related to political consulting work they did well before joining the Trump campaign for a Ukrainian political party.

Gates has already met with Mueller’s team in what’s known as a “queen for a day” session, according to CNN. In such meetings, defendants are generally allowed to speak freely about other crimes that they witnessed in exchange for assurances that their words will not be used against them.
