Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

Although he was prosecuted by the US Attorney in DC and DOJ's National Security Division, Samuel Patten's plea agreement expressly includes his agreement to cooperate with the Mueller investigation too.pic.twitter.com/NY8nnN8Dqo
For posterity, here are today's principal documents on W. Samuel Patten. Information: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4806847-Patten-Criminal-Information.html … Statement of the Offense: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4806838-Patten-SOF.html … Plea Agreement:https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4806842-Patten-Plea-Agreement.html …
The Special Counsel's Office took a very active role in Patten's case, signing a proffer agreement with him in May of this year and agreeing to be bound by the plea agreement today. Worth pondering: Why refer it out for the plea?pic.twitter.com/nOMqc19mZV
Given the descriptions of Weissmann and Patten's interactions with the FBI guy at the plea, it sounds like they've already gotten the cooperation they need from him.
Do either of you think this plea is a result of Gates’s cooperation?
Gates ran the inaugural committee and has been cooperating for months. Seems reasonable to conclude.
Agree. The timing of the proffer, too.
I thought so but wanted to asked those more knowledgeable! Thanks.
