During that time, Danchenko had an immunity agreement, Durham said during the first day of Danchenko\u2019s trial in federal court in Virginia.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors will introduce \u201can immunity agreement that was entered into by the defendant with the government in which he was told specifically that he agreed to make full and complete disclosure of information,\u201d Durham said.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement was presented to Danchenko in January 2017, when the FBI interviewed Danchenko about his role in the dossier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only requirements of that agreement, the only requirements was that the defendant provide complete and truthful information, that he not withhold any information, and that he not attempt to protect any person through false information or omission,\u201d Michael Keilty, an assistant special counsel, told jurors.<\/p>\n<p>Danny Onorato, a lawyer representing Charles Dolan, later pointed at Durham and told the jury that the prosecution was lying about the agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Durham objected, noting that the agreement has been entered as an exhibit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo for the defense counsel to stand here and tell this jury that the government lied is highly inappropriate,\u201d Durham said.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. District Judge Anthony Trenga, a George W. Bush appointee overseeing the case, struck Onorato\u2019s comments from the record.<\/p>\n<p>Danchenko is charged with five counts of lying to the FBI. He\u2019s accused of falsely saying he didn\u2019t source information he later provided to Steele from Dolan, a longtime Clinton family associate.\u00a0Hillary Clinton helped pay for the dossier.
