ALEXANDRIA, Virginia — A jury has found Russian national Igor Danchenko not guilty on four false statements charges, declining to convict him for the allegations that the main source of British ex-spy Christopher Steele had lied to the FBI about his sourcing for the discredited anti-Trump dossier.
The jury reached their decision on Tuesday after less than two days of deliberations, delivering John Durham another defeat in his long-running investigation of the Trump-Russia investigators, after the special counsel lost another false statements case against a Clinton campaign lawyer in May.
According to Durham’s November 2021 indictment, Danchenko anonymously sourced a fabricated claim about Trump 2016 campaign manager Paul Manafort to Charles Dolan, a Clinton ally who spent years, including 2016, doing work for Russian businesses and the Russian government, but in a blow to Durham’s case, the judge threw out that charge before the jury could decide on it.
One charge had been dismissed by the judge last week, and on Tuesday a jury was reached shortly before the end of the day. It has not been announced yet.

One question: is Durham part of the problem or a failed part of the solution?

Actually, to me it was expected. Alexandria VA is the bluest of the blue parts of No. Virginia. Wish Durham would have pushed this case further out into Virginia. Alexandria is as bad as a DC venue.

The pattern with DC area juries seems to be - Republican guilty, Democrat innocent.
