Your interpretation is correct. The court, on its own motion (sua sponte) ordered Mueller to turn over all exculpatory evidence to Flynn, even though he had already pleaded guilty. The court clearly wanted to make sure that Flynn’s plea was knowing and intentional, i.e., made with sufficient knowledge of the facts that it could be willfully entered into.
The 302s should have been among the documents provided to Flynn under the Court’s order.
What I don’t understand is why Flynn and his lawyers, having this information, have not attacked the prosecution and sought to throw out the plea, the indictment, and the Special Counsel’s investigation. It is a travesty. The only thing that makes sense is info that came to light with the recent indictments of two people connected with Flynn in lobbying for Turkey. He was on the hook for not registering, or maybe his son was in some jeopardy, and so even though he knew that the lying case against him was BS, he did not contest it in order to avoid other charges against him and his family. Otherwise, his lawyers are the worst ever.
Suggest you read the actual plea agreement. He was immunized against many other potential prosecutions. That’s not speculation, or something we are just learning, it’s something we’ve known for months.
Your speculation is almost certainly correct. The charge he pled to is nonsense but he didnt want to face the other potential charges, or have his son charged. But for those considerations his lawyers would have filed a motion to withdraw the plea which would have been granted.
As you say, the only logical answer - from what we know - is that he is saving his family from legal jeopardy. It appears that the cases he is 'cooperating with' have been referred to DoJ, not in Mueller's scope. {Clintooon? 'bama?}
As to the Logan Act - no one has ever been convicted of violating it, and there are questions about its constitutionality.
***his lawyers are the worst ever***
Perhaps pro bono currently? Flynn was insistent . . . something going on. {?}
