The Special Counsel’s Office is demanding jail time for a lawyer who pleaded guilty for lying to prosecutors.
On Tuesday, 33-year-old Dutch Attorney Alex Van Der Zwaan asked to avoid jail time in the investigation into alleged foreign meddling in the 2016 election.
Additional court papers urge the judge in the case to incarcerate the accused lawyer.
Last month, Van Der Zwaan pleaded guilty to lying to Special Counsel investigators about his conversations with President Trump’s former campaign aide Rick Gates.
Sentencing is scheduled for Tuesday, April 3, where Van Der Zwaan will be the first defendant to face sentencing in the Mueller probe.
