Jury acquits Russian analyst of lying to FBI in Trump dossier case

This was the third case brought by special counsel John Durham in FBI's own investigation into Russian collusion claims

A jury on Tuesday acquitted a thinktank analyst accused of lying to the FBI about his role in the creation of a discredited dossier about Donald Trump.

The case against Igor Danchenko was the third and possibly final case brought by the special counsel John Durham as part of his investigation into how the FBI conducted its own inquiry into allegations of collusion between the 2016 Trump campaign and the Kremlin.
