Sussmann denies any wrongdoing and has pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The allegation here is that Michael Sussmann got in with a meeting with the general counsel there at the Federal Bureau of Investigation by representing that he wasn&#8217;t representing anybody,&#8221; Chaffetz said during an interview with Rep. Andy Biggs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But there&#8217;s other documentation and flow of money and logs and whatnot,&#8221; he added. &#8220;That&#8217;s why this is a case that is important, because these people had this incestuous relationship to be able to actually go in and access things that other people that are on the receiving end of these \u2014 of these types of prosecutions don&#8217;t get to do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chaffetz is a former Republican U.S. representative from Utah who was a member of Congress from 2009 to 2017, serving as chairman of the House Oversight Committee in his final years there.<\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/former-attorney-general-expects-no-durham-charges-against-obama\">FORMER ATTORNEY GENERAL EXPECTS NO DURHAM CHARGES AGAINST OBAMA<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>After the judge presiding over the case denied Sussmann&#8217;s <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/judge-denies-democrat-lawyer-michael-sussmanns-effort-to-toss-durham-indictment\">attempt to dismiss<\/a>, Durham revealed in <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/durham-cia-concluded-data-alleging-trump-russia-connection-not-technically-plausible-user-created\">a court filing late Friday<\/a> that a government agency, identified in media reports as the CIA, found data from Sussmann indicating that coordination between Trump and Russia was &#8220;not technically plausible&#8221; and &#8220;user created.&#8221; Durham also said &#8220;the Special Counsel\u2019s Office has not reached a definitive conclusion in this regard.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the correspondence with the FBI, Durham said in a prior filing that Sussmann later \u201cprovided an updated set of allegations \u2014 including the Russian Bank-1 data and additional allegations relating to Trump\u201d to the agency believed to be the CIA. The Russian bank <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/durham-insists-snooping-evidence-valid-for-case-and-media-misinterpretations-dont-undermine-facts\">is Alfa Bank<\/a>.

And I&#8217;m not sure that the Clinton campaign folks or the Democratic Party wants to see this go to trial and air their dirty laundry even further,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Durham is in the midst of<a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/democratic-lawyer-sussmann-fights-durham-use-of-fbi-expert-testimony-on-alfa-bank-data-accuracy\">\u00a0two active prosecutions<\/a>, including a case against the main source for British ex-spy Christopher Steele&#8217;s anti-Trump dossier and the case against Sussmann, whose trial is scheduled to begin May 16. <\/p>\n<p>Some allies of Trump suspect Durham is building a conspiracy case that will envelop people in and around Clinton&#8217;s 2016 presidential campaign.
