WASHINGTON (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 06th September, 2018) The Office of Special Counsel Robert Mueller issued a subpoena to conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi who has connections to Roger Stone, a former adviser to US President Donald Trump, media reported on Wednesday.
Corsi has been subpoenaed to provide testimony on Friday, The New York Times reported citing defense lawyer David Gray.
Corsi's attorney said that Mueller was going to ask his client about conversations with Stone regarding the release of former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's emails by WikiLeaks, the report added. Gray also said his client will comply with the court subpoena.
Stone, according to the report, appeared to publicly predict that WikiLeaks planned to publish material damaging to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign during the 2016 election.
Corsi has propagated conspiracy theories about former President Barack Obama's place of birth and the attacks on September 11, 2001, among others. He is also tied to Alex Jones, the host of the notorious conspiracy website InfoWars.
The special counsel is investigating allegations that Russia meddled in the 2016 US election and charges of collusion between Moscow and the Trump campaign. Russia has dismissed claims that it interfered with the vote, insisting that it does not meddle in the internal affairs of other countries. Trump has also rejected accusations of collusion and has publicly denounced Mueller's probe.
