Special Counsel Mueller teams up with New York Attorney General in Paul Manafort probe.

 

The cooperation is the latest sign that the investigation into Trump’s former campaign chairman is intensifying.

 

People close to Manafort say that investigators have pressured him by approaching family members and former business partners. 

 

Additionally, a number of other firms and people who have worked with Manafort have received subpoenas.

Knowledgeable parties have noted that President Trump cannot pardon any state criminal offenses, hence such is a likely key reason for reaching out to New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman so as “encourage” Paul Manafort to flip in exchange for plea deal on any possible state felony charges.

 

Plus, one can only assume that Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is surely personally motivated given Trump’s long ongoing history of dissing him over all manner of legal disputes even if Trump has often come out on the losing end in this disputes.

What is not so well known is that IRS has developed highly advanced software investigatory tools. 

 

In particular, the IRS has developed an Artificial Intelligence expert system investigation checklist and report generation software.

 

Quincy Quarry’s illicit affairs desk was somewhat recently provided a look under the hood of this expert system software.

Not only was the software duly impressive, this Quincy Quarry News team member came away from the demonstration more than a bit afraid of the ability this expert system software to develop duly compiled as well as compelling grand jury and/or trial ready evidentiary presentations.
