Mueller’s grand jury is ‘continuing robustly’ even though his official probe is over: Assistant US attorney

Just because special counsel Robert Mueller has ended his probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, that doesn’t mean the grand jury he assembled is done working just yet.

Politico reports that Assistant U.S. Attorney David Goodhand acknowledged this week that the grand jury will continue to investigate Russian interference even though Mueller’s role in the probe has ended.

“It is continuing,” he said. “It’s continuing robustly."

The grand jury is still working on tying up several loose ends related to the Russia probe, including one case involving an unnamed foreign company that has been held in contempt for defying a Mueller subpoena.
