Flynn lawyer accuses prosecutors of ‘egregious conduct,’ hiding exculpatory evidence
By Jake Gibson, Alex Pappas | Fox News
Former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s legal team indicated in federal court Tuesday they are seeking to have the case against him dismissed, accusing the prosecution of "egregious conduct and suppression†of possibly exculpatory evidence.
In a status conference in federal court in Washington, Flynn's lead defense attorney, Sidney Powell, said: “There is far more at stake here than sentencing. There were stunning failures to produce Brady material, going back to July of 2017."
The "Brady material" complaint is in reference to the Supreme Court case Brady v. Maryland, which established the government's obligation turn over all exculpatory evidence.
Flynn in 2017 pleaded guilty to providing false statements to the FBI during an interview about his contacts with the former Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak, as part of former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
