Did They Go to Law School?

It's an old story, but there's new info today about the Mueller team and its claim that the Russians hacked the computers of the Democratic National Committee.  Remember, Mueller had 12 Russians indicted for supposedly carrying out this hack.  The amazing thing, however, is that no one from the federal government, not the FBI, not team Mueller, not the CIA and not the NSA ever got to see the DNC computer systems.  All that happened is that the DNC said its computer had been hacked and then the DNC hired a consultant named Crowdstrike to review the situation.  Crowdstrike supposedly concluded that it was the Russians who carried out the purported hack.  Of course, this is just based upon the claims of Crowdstrike rather than upon a review of the actual evidence.

The big news today is that in a court filing, the Mueller team concede that all it saw was PART of a report written by Crowdstrike.  That's right, the DNC only gave the government a redacted version of the report.  The FBI only got to see something like 80% of the report.

There's no way that any competent court would ever allow this evidence to even be seen by the jury.  It's pure hearsay.  The actual evidence, namely the computer itself, could have been reviewed by the FBI, but the bureau chose to accept limitations put in place by the DNC and only to look at a redacted version of the report. 

Every time I think that the shoddy work that was done by Team Mueller and the FBI can't get worse, I am shocked to find that it can get worse and it does.
