With Indictments of Russians, the Groundwork Is in Place to Criminally Charge Hillary

"The indictments of Russian nationals for meddling with the election could “make the Clinton Campaign a potential target,” according to a California lawyer.
In an opinion piece for Law & Crime , Robert Barnes said that Robert Mueller indicted of 13 Russians and three Russian companies because they did not register as foreign agents or record financial expenditures to the Federal Elections Commissions.
“They were foreign citizens; they tried to influence an election; and they neither registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act nor reported their funding to the Federal Elections Commission,” he wrote.
The first one is that they knew Christopher Steele, the author of the infamous Russia-Trump dossier, was a foreign citizen.
The next potentially criminating thing is that the Clinton campaign “knew, and paid, Steele to influence an election.”
“It employed hundreds of people in its online operations, ranging from creators of fictitious personas, to technical and administrative support personnel, with an annual budget of millions of dollars,” Rosenstein said.
Steele himself, based on Mueller’s theory, is a criminal under the same guidelines as the Russian indictments. He is a foreign citizen, was paid to influence an election, and never registered as a foreign agent or listed his expenditures.
The Clinton campaign is not the only potential target under Mueller’s theory.
The DNC, Perkins Coie and Fusion GPS could also be targeted for indictment, according to Barnes.
However, Barnes said not to expect an indictment of any of these people or organizations.
“Mueller chose his targets because he knows they will never appear in court, never contest the charges, and cannot be arrested or extradited as Russian citizens,” he wrote.
