    Legal experts: is "subject" a term of art? Where does it stand in the spectrum between "person of interest" and "criminal target"?https://twitter.com/costareports/status/981322047518314496 …

        THREAD: What does today’s news that Trump is a “subject” of Mueller’s investigation but not a “target” mean? (Short answer: Not as much as it seems at first glance.)

        should be noted that this story must be sourced to Jay Sekulow, since he has no other personal attorneys and everyone knows Mueller's office doesn't speak to press like this.

        1/2 Mueller told Trump’s attorneys he is a subject, not a target of the Russia investigation. A subject’s conduct falls within the scope of an investigation, while targets are people prosecutors have decided to charge. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/mueller-told-trumps-attorneys-the-president-remains-under-investigation-but-is-not-currently-a-criminal-target/2018/04/03/d7832cf0-36c1-11e8-acd5-35eac230e514_story.html …

        Interestingly, when I worked in the classification dept at a holding jail, "subject" meant "inmate."

        As long as the verb is “prosecute” then we have grammatical agreement.
