READ IT: Bombshell evidence of Manafort's attempts to influence witness testimonies accidentally rel

Source: Raw Story

Special counsel Robert Mueller inadvertently released an un-redacted exhibit of evidence against former Donald Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort on Wednesday.

Natasha Bertrand, staff writer for The Atlantic and MSNBC contributor, posted the exhibit to her personal Twitter account.

Fifteen minutes later, Bertrand posted an update explaining the release was a mistake.

Oh boy. Looks like releasing this unredacted was a mistake–special counsel has just re-filed this and other docs with redactions. (Kilimnik's name is redacted, too, interestingly.) https://t.co/qHFxoufX8e

THESE kind of mistakes. EVERYTHING that Mueller & his team does are DELIBERATE, MEASURED & STRATEGIC. This is NOT a fuqq-up.
