'False': US attorney rejects claims that John Durham is 'acting out of political motives'

U.S. Attorney John Durham is a trustworthy actor whose findings from his inquiry into the Russia investigation will not be tainted by bias, according to a fellow U.S. attorney from a nearby state.

Breitbart's Joel Pollak asked Andrew Lelling, the U.S. attorney for the District of Massachusetts, whether or not there is merit to claims that the criminal investigation being run by Durham, the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut, has become embroiled in a heavily politicized environment. President Trump and his allies argue the commander in chief was the target of a sabotage campaign conducted by federal law enforcement and intelligence officials. Meanwhile, Democrats and some legal and law enforcement veterans warn that Durham, who was appointed to the task by Attorney General William Barr, is setting up an "October Surprise" to disrupt the 2020 election.

“I know John Durham a little bit, the U.S. attorney in Connecticut. He is a longtime prosecutor within the Justice Department. I think he’s in probably about 30 years. He’s probably the least political prosecutor I’ve ever met," Lelling said on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Sunday.

"So while I don’t know the underlying details or pros and cons of the investigation he’s doing, what I do know is that any accusation against Durham that he is acting out of political motives, I’m confident is false," he added. "That guy is a prosecutor’s prosecutor. He is an absolute straight shooter.”

During a heated testimony in July, Barr said he will not prevent Durham from releasing his conclusive report before the November election, an answer which did not sit well among House Democrats.

"I think, in its core, the idea is, you don’t go after candidates," Barr said in his testimony. "You don’t indict candidates or perhaps someone that’s sufficiently close to a candidate, that it’s essentially the same, you know, within a certain number of days before an election. But, you know, as I say, I don’t think any of the people whose actions are under review by Durham fall into that category.”
