A Russian man wanted by the Justice Department on charges connected to hacking U.S. companies now claims the FBI offered him immunity in exchange for accepting responsibility for cyberattacks targeting former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
Yevgeny Nikulin, the alleged hacker, laid the claim to Russian media Thursday in a letter sent from a Czech Republic prison cell amid an international extradition battle currently underway between Washington and Moscow.
FBI agents promised Mr. Nikulin money, American citizenship and a free apartment for taking the fall over hacking Mrs. Clinton’s campaign, he alleged in a letter published Thursday by Nastoyashchoe Vremya, a Russian-language website.
“[They told me:] you will have to confess to breaking into Clinton’s inbox for [President Trump] on behalf of [Russian President Vladimir Putin],” Mr. Nikulin wrote, as translated by The Moscow Times.
“He was offered to falsely testify that he was cooperating in the attack on the Democratic Party,” defense attorney Martin Sadilek said Thursday, the Associated Press reported. The FBI declined to comment.

Set up the Patsy. The oldest trick in the book other than, “we’ll cut ‘em off at the pass”.
This seems huge
"I HATE that cliche!"
Seth Rich’s killer.
This was the catch.
“[They told me:] you will have to confess to breaking into Clinton ’s inbox for [President Trump] on behalf of [Russian President Vladimir Putin],” Mr. Nikulin wrote, as translated by The Moscow Times
Not credible.
The FBI wants this guy to falsely confess to hacking Hillary. In return, he gets U.S. citizenship and a government funded apartment? C’mon people. Turn your B.S. detectors on.
Now that is a possibility.
free Yevgeny Nikulin
I can believe that. The FBI is corrupt. After they promise that then they make him disappear. I think you need to think how the government deceives everyone
It does.
good point, imagine if hillary won. they would be coming after the deplorables by now.
“In return, he gets U.S. citizenship and a government funded apartment”
The same deal was offered to many Russian spies who deserted in the past. Look it up. He would probably get a new identity also.
Not credible.

++++
Worth repeating. My take as well.
I can’t even imagine what life will be like right now if Hillary was President. The media will be singing her praises and every country will step all over us. The liberals and government will come to destroy us and the elected GOPee will fold like cheap chairs.
It’s quite credible, that was the FBI under Obama/Lynch/Comey. If it’s true, those responsible belong in jail.
I will say it again. free Yevgeny Nikulin. Is he like the video guy from bengazi?
Study up on what they did to Richard Jewell. This is not a case where real evidence is needed. All that is required is to keep the story alive that Trump is a Russian agent.
The Russians did it!
Maybe not...
RIP Seth Rich
