New twist in Butina case possible after FBI informant denied she posed threat to US – lawyer to RT.
A new development in the case of the Russian gun activist Maria Butina has emerged after an FBI informant, with whom she had an affair, revealed that he repeatedly told the agency that the woman posed no threat to the US. Butina’s lawyer, Robert Driscoll, issued a statement last week, saying that a man, who used to be in a relationship with his client, had contacted him and revealed that he was an FBI informant during their time together. The person in question was none other than US entrepreneur, e-commerce pioneer, and CEO of Overstock.com Patrick Byrne. Byrne insisted that he had reported on multiple occasions to the FBI that “Maria’s behavior and interaction with him was inconsistent with her being a foreign agent and more likely an idealist and age-appropriate peace activist.”

The FBI informant came forward because “he was particularly upset when he heard news reports of the sentencing where the government characterized her as a threat to national security,” Driscoll noted. At the time of her arrest “he was of the strong view that she was not a danger and wasn’t a Russian agent.”
Such stance completely echoed the line of Butina’s legal team, who insisted during the trial that she was only “a Russian student with an interest in politics, who really wanted better US-Russia relations,” the lawyer added.
Driscoll told RT that he had sent a letter to the Department of Justice as soon as Byrne came forward in order to receive copies of his reports and hopes to “hear back shortly” from them.
Maria Butina should get 10 million dollars as a compensation for her unfair imprisonment. And all the people responsible for all those lies about her should get 5 years prison sentences each.
