A key charge in the obstruction of justice trial arising from the infamous dossier on Donald Trump’s alleged ties to Russia was thrown out last Friday by a federal judge.
Igor Danchenko is on trial charged with lying to the FBI about his role in creating the dossier. Here is why insurance fraud investigators should be very concerned.

The government charged Danchenko since there was very clear evidence that Danchenko and the operative repeatedly discussed the dossier in emails.

Danchenko’s attorneys argued his response was entirely truthful because they did not talk orally. The FBI agent, they asserted, failed to use the right words or ask the right questions.
