Judicial Watch: Nellie Ohr Deleted Emails Exchanged with DOJ Husband Bruce Ohr

‘I’m deleting these emails now’

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today released an email revealing that Nellie Ohr, wife of former Associate Deputy Attorney General Bruce Ohr, informed him that she was deleting emails sent from Bruce Ohr’s DOJ email account.

From: Nellie Ohr

Sent: Wednesday, April 20, 2016 12:49 PM

To: Ohr, Bruce (ODAG)

Subject: Re: Analyst Russian Organized Crime – April 2016

Thanks! I’m deleting these emails now

The full email exchange is between Bruce Ohr, Lisa Holtyn, Nellie Ohr, and Stefan Bress, a first secretary at the German Embassy, and is part of 339 pages of heavily redacted records from the U.S. Department of Justice.

Judicial Watch obtained the records through a March 2018 Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed after the Justice Department failed to respond a December 2017 request (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:18-cv-00490)).

Nellie Ohr’s email has the same subject line as an email exchange with the subject line “Analyst Russian Organized Crime – April 2016” in which Bress initiates a discussion with Bruce Ohr and his top aide, Lisa Holtyn, proffering some “Russian analysts” to discuss a variety of topics with Ohr, Holtyn, and other DOJ officials. Among those topics to be discussed is “Impact of Russian influence operations in Europe (‘PsyOps/InfoWar’).”

Holtyn responds with, “I haven’t had a chance to confer with Bruce yet, but would certainly love to meet with the ‘A Team’!” Bruce Ohr then says, “That time works for me as well.” Bress then provides the personal details/passport numbers of the German analysts who will be meeting with Holtyn and Ohr. Holtyn tells Bress that the Ohr’s would like to host the German delegation for dinner and notes that Joe Wheatley and Ivana Nizich (a husband/wife team of DOJ Organized Crime prosecutors and friends of the Ohr’s) would join them as well.

Until he was demoted for his connection to the anti-Trump dossier, Bruce Ohr was a top official at DOJ. A House Intelligence Committee memo released by Chairman Devin Nunes said that Nellie Ohr was “employed by Fusion GPS to assist in the cultivation of opposition research on Trump” and that Bruce Ohr passed the results of that research, which was paid for by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Hillary Clinton campaign, to the FBI. The “salacious and unverified” Dossier was used to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) surveillance warrant to spy on Carter Page.

These documents are part of Nellie Ohr’s and the DOJ’s communications about Russia. Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) recently wrote up a criminal referral concerning her testimony before Congress that she had no knowledge of what was going on during the Russia investigation at DOJ.

“This email is disturbing and suggests documents relevant to the improper targeting of President Trump were destroyed,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

This production of documents also revealed that Bruce Ohr remained in regular contact with former British spy and Fusion GPS contractor Christopher Steele after Steele was terminated by the FBI in November 2016 for revealing to the media his position as an FBI confidential informant.

Oh, come on. You are overreacting, falling prey to fake news and conspiracy theories.

I am sure this busy 57 year old woman, holding down three jobs, wanted to spend her down time being a Ham Radio operator...

Actually, I think she was rather intelligent to delete them. As a non-intel citizen, she had no on-going reason to retain them where they could bite her/Bruce later. She WAS trained in tradecraft (CIA embed).

Look what happened to Whistleblower Ward.
Midnight SWAT for FBI info/dox that he had already given to lawyers.
Now, there may be positives to that but, really, aside from Roger Stone, who is gonna take a SWAT in stride?

Seeing a female traitor hang wouldn’t really bother me much. At all.

It’s all Dan Marino’s fault.

If he had held the ball laces out, like you’re supposed to, Ray would have never missed that kick.

(hat tip to unknown FReeper for that one)

“She is doubly stupid if she thinks ‘deleted’ e-mails are actually ‘deleted’”

Like Hillary thinking that smashing her BlackBerry devices destroyed her communications. I’ve heard that copies of all of it live in BB’s servers.

The Dossier Graph needs to include the connection between Bruce Ohr and Andrew Weissmann. See here:

That’s worse than a violation of protocol, that’s a security violation. I’ve seen people fired for that.
