Dossier Author Testified His Emails Were ‘Wiped,' He No Longer Has Documents Related To Primary Source
2020-04-24
[DailyCaller] 1. Christopher Steele told a British court last month that he no longer has key documents related to his infamous dossier.
2. The ex-spy said in a deposition that his email accounts were wiped clean of any correspondence related to the dossier. It is not clear if Steele deleted the accounts himself.
3. He also claimed he no does not have information related to debriefings he had in 2016 with his lone source of information for the dossier.
4. Steele suggested in a statement late last year that he meticulously documented and recorded; his meetings with the source.

Christopher Steele told a British court last month that he no longer has documents and other information from his meetings with the main source for his Trump dossier, suggesting that the former British spy has no way of backing up his side in a dispute with the Justice Department's inspector general (IG), according to a deposition transcript obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Steele also told the court that his communications regarding the dossier, including with Fusion GPS, were "wiped"
Thanks for the tip Hillary!
in December 2016 and January 2017, the transcript shows.

The former MI6 officer made the disclosures during a March 17-18 deposition in a defamation case related to the dossier. The DCNF obtained a transcript of the deposition.

Steele suggested in a Dec. 10 statement that he had evidence that would shed light on what his main dossier source told him back in 2016, when Steele was working for the firm Fusion GPS to investigate frame the Trump campaign.
Remembering when the Burg didn't know Steele's name but knew he went into hiding after being exposed.

#6  Actually, IMO, Steele have done nothing wrong.
He wrote a spy thriller. It's the people who used it as valid, factual information, who are the criminals.

#5  Spoliation of Evidence, Obstruction of Justice, Perjury (lying under oath). Extradite him and arrest him. "Protective" custody since he could be a threat to the Clintons.
