Case 1:17-cr-00232-EGS Document 249 Filed 09/24/20 Page 1 of 2

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT


FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

v.
Crim. No. 17-232 (EGS)
MICHAEL T. FLYNN,

Defendant

GOVERNMENT’S SUPPLEMENTAL FILING IN SUPPORT OF


MOTION TO DISMISS

On May 7, 2020, the United States of America, by and through its United States Attorney

for the District of Columbia, submitted a motion to dismiss with prejudice the charges against the

defendant, Michael T. Flynn. The motion stated that the Government had determined that

continued prosecution of this case would not serve the interests of justice citing, among other

things, concern with the FBI’s “frail and shifting justifications for its ongoing probe of Mr.

Flynn, as well as the irregular procedure that preceded his interview.” ECF Doc. 198, at 16. In

subsequent discovery filings, we noted that beginning in January 2020, the United States

Attorney for the Eastern District of Missouri has been conducting an ongoing review of the FBI

investigation that led to charges in this case. ECF Docs. 181-1, 187-1, 210-1, 230-1 and 235-1.

Pursuant to that continuing review, an interview was recently conducted of the former case

agent, SA William Barnett, who handled the counterintelligence investigation of Mr. Flynn, and

was thereafter assigned to the Special Counsel’s Office investigating Russian interference in the

2016 Presidential Election. The FBI 302 of that interview is affixed hereto as Exhibit 1.
