He believed that Mueller’s final report on the investigation, which will be delivered to Congress and will not involve any formal charges against the president, will “blur the line between crimes and sins.”
"What I’m afraid is going to happen is this special counsel, whose job it is only to find crimes, not sins, only crimes, will blur the line between crimes and sins and write a report designed to put the president in a bad light," Dershowitz told Fox News Host Tucker Carlson. "But in the end, they won’t be able to find any specific violations of federal criminal statutes unless they stretch these vague laws like obstruction of justice beyond any recognition.”
The reasoning for Dershowitz’s view on Mueller and federal prosecutors, the law professor said, was because he does not “see any crimes.” Previously, Dershowitz has said Mueller's final report will be "politically very devastating."
"Collusion itself is not a crime,” he said. “Using information given by Russia to Wikileaks would not be a crime unless the campaign participated with Wikileaks in the hacking itself. There’s no evidence to support that."
