(CNN)The Pentagon's internal watchdog has finished a long-delayed investigation into Michael Flynn and has sent its findings to the Army for a final review that could possibly bring financial penalties against the military retirement benefits afforded to the retired Army three-star general.
It is unclear when the Defense Department may announce its decision in the matter. The Washington Post first reported the report's referral to the Army.
Former President Donald Trump pardoned Flynn, his first national security adviser, last November, an action that wiped away the guilty plea Flynn had made in 2017 -- and then attempted to withdraw in 2020 -- for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia during the 2016 presidential transition.
