Special Counsel Robert Mueller spent nearly two years investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and potential connections to Donald Trump's campaign. This complete report presents Mueller's findings on collusion allegations and obstruction of justice questions. The investigation resulted in indictments of Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, and others. Attorney General William Barr concluded that Mueller found no proof of collusion, though Mueller reached no final determination on obstruction charges. The report includes Mueller's full 400-page findings as released by the Justice Department, Barr's four-page congressional summary, regulatory provisions governing special counsel powers, and Barr's explanation of redacted material with color-coded identification keys. Constitutional scholar Alan Dershowitz provides an introduction offering legal perspective on the investigation's constitutional implications.
