DOJ releases second redacted version of Mueller report over FOIA lawsuits
By Jacqueline Thomsen - 05/06/19 08:12 PM EDT
The Department of Justice on Monday released a second redacted version of the Mueller report, but the document doesn’t appear to make public new details about the special counsel’s investigation and findings.
This redacted version of the report was released in response to Freedom of Information Act lawsuits filed by the privacy group Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) and BuzzFeed News reporter Jason Leopold.
Leopold noted on Twitter that while the lengthy report itself doesn’t seem to provide new public information, it does shed more light on exactly why certain information was withheld.
