2nd. If it sounds to good to be true than it probably is.
Muller is still adding people to his team. While it is an all star legal team with people brought in for their expertise in specific fields I don't buy that he has all the evidence he needs only a month onto the job.
This investigation might drag on for years given how complex it is.

(1,007 posts)My take was that everyone is calling or waiting for a smoking gun as in the Watergate tapes. What Abramson is suggesting, is there will be no smoking gun...but by placing all pieces of the puzzle together like the FBI would...we will see a straight go to jail sign.
I do believe there is pressure on Mueller from both sides to speed things up....however, by a chart someone provided yesterday...there are so many involved that the investigators need to interview and prosecute everyone connected. And up until Mueller was hired, the Senate and House intel committees only had a skeleton staff to even prepare and work on the case.
More time will be used up, attempting to organize, log, and format all the evidence so that it can be used in court. And usually prosecuting attorneys do not pursue cases they do not believe they can win...so if Mueller keeps hiring more attorneys and staff..I see this as a very good sign.....just my thoughts....
