Stone Indictment Details Apparent Ties to Wikileaks, Assange
Roger Stone apparently also invoked President Richard Nixon and the 'Godfather: Part II' in urging associates to 'stonewall' federal investigator
Details in the Roger Stone indictment show how he worked in partnership with Julian Assange, the head of Wikileaks, during the 2016 presidential election.
A SEVEN-COUNT indictment filed in federal court Friday against Trump confidante Roger Stone describes a series of covert actions across two continents to upend Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign – apparently in partnership with the head of Wikileaks, Julian Assange, as well as a political pundit and a radio host.
Special counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating Russian interference in the election as well as possible collusion between members of the Trump campaign and Moscow, charged Stone with witness tampering, obstruction of an official proceeding and lying to federal investigators.
The indictment largely draws from a series of text messages, emails and other documents. Like the other documents Mueller's team has filed, the Stone indictment is vague in spelling out connections to President Donald Trump and his campaign, mostly laying out Stone's knowledge of a scheme by which a tranche of emails stolen from the Clinton campaign were made public and his subsequent lies about what he knew.
Neither Assange nor Wikileaks is identified by name in the 23-page document, but its descriptions of the website and its dyspeptic editor – himself a vocal critic of Clinton – leave little room for doubt. It describes "Organization 1" as an outfit that "had previously posted documents stolen by others from U.S. persons, entities, and the U.S. government, released tens of thousands of documents stolen from the DNC and the personal email account of the chairman of the U.S. presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton," and that it is led by an individual who was "located at all relevant times at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London."
Assange hasn't left the embassy since 2012, when he sought refuge there after being indicted by authorities in Sweden and the United States.
The indictment also further illustrates the Trump campaign's intense interest in obtaining damaging information about Clinton. After an enormous document dump in June 2016 by "Organization 1," the indictment alleges that a "senior Trump campaign official was directed" to contact Stone about potential further damaging releases from the organization. Who did the directing is left unclear.
After the instruction from the Trump campaign, Stone allegedly emailed "Person 1" – a "political commentator who worked with a digital media publication" – to get in touch with the head of Organization 1. After some back and forth, Person 1 offered an update roughly a month later.
"Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps," the person wrote to Stone, according to the indictment. "Time to let more than [the Clinton Campaign chairman] to be exposed as in bed w enemy if they are not ready to drop HRC. That appears to be the game hackers are now about. Would not hurt to start suggesting HRC old, memory bad, has stroke – neither he nor she well. I expect that much of next dump focus, setting stage for Foundation debacle."
Similar communications continued through the next three months with a "Person 2," a "radio host" who had known Stone for more than a decade. During that time, Stone also began stating in media interviews and public events that he had been in touch with Assange. Wikileaks finally released Oct. 7 what would become the first of multiple batches of emails stolen from the Clinton campaign.
"Shortly after Organization 1's release, an associate of the highranking Trump Campaign official sent a text message to STONE that read 'well done,'" the indictment says.
Notably, the dump occurred one hour after the release of the so-called "Access Hollywood" tape, on which Trump was recorded making demeaning comments about women.
The indictment says that Stone later lied about these interactions to congressional investigators, which is a federal crime. Among other statements, a letter to the House intelligence committee – one of several bodies that were investigating Russian election interference – falsely said "Mr. Stone has no documents, records, or electronically stored information, regardless of form, other than those widely available that reasonably could lead to the discovery of any facts within the investigation's publicly-announced parameters."
Stone also falsely claimed he had never had written communications with the intermediaries identified as Person 1 and Person 2, the indictment says.
Stone, meanwhile, faces the charge of witness tampering because prosecutors say he urged Person 2 to "stonewall" investigators. "STONE urged Person 2, if asked by HPSCI, to falsely confirm what STONE had previously testified to," the indictment says, referring to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
In a text message in November 2017, he added, "'Stonewall it. Plead the fifth. Anything to save the plan' ... Richard Nixon.'" Stone even invoked "The Godfather: Part II."
"On multiple occasions, including on or about December 1, 2017, STONE told Person 2 that Person 2 should do a ;Frank Pentangeli; before HPSCI in order to avoid contradicting STONE's testimony. Frank Pentangeli is a character in the film "The Godfather: Part II," which both STONE and Person 2 had discussed, who testifies before a congressional committee and in that testimony claims not to know critical information that he does in fact know," the indictment says.
