JUST IN=> Robert Mueller Requests Postponement of Gen. Michael Flynn’s Sentencing

Special counsel Robert Mueller has requested the postponement of former National Security Advisor Gen. Michael Flynn’s sentencing. 

“Due to the status of the Special Counsel’s investigation, the parties do not believe that this matter is ready to be scheduled for a sentencing hearing at this time,” the special counsel asked the court.

The court filing states a date to sentence Flynn could not be determined by the special counsel at this time and that 90-day extension is be required.

As The Gateway Pundit reported last December, U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras was recused from Flynn’s criminal case. Emmet G. Sullivan now oversees over the trial.

“U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras of DC recuses from fmr Trump national security advisor Michael T. Flynn’s criminal case, court says. Emmet G. Sullivan, a 1994 Clinton appointee and fmr Reagan and Bush I judicial appointee, takes over by random draw,” reported Washington Post reporter Spencer Hsu.

It is not clear why Contreras was recused from the case.

Last year, The Gateway Pundit asked: Was President Trump’s National Security Advisor tricked into meeting with the FBI without a lawyer?

Fox News host Sean Hannity and reporter Sara Carter have suggested Flynn may have been tricked into having the interview with disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok without a lawyer.

 

Michael Flynn, former National Security Adviser to President Trump, pleaded guilty last year for making false statements to the FBI about contacting Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the transition.
