Former Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos, who was sentenced in the Mueller investigation, says he would “honorably accept” a pardon if offered one.
Papadopoulos rejected the FBI's request to wear a wire, he told lawmakers in October 2018, and he pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to the FBI about his contacts with the professor, Joseph Mifsud, who remains one of the mysterious figures in the Russia investigation.
In his congressional interview, Papadopoulos' attorney, Caroline Polisi, would not let him answer questions about whether he still believed he lied to the FBI."We are here on a voluntary basis. We have answered all of your questions thus far. It is my advice to him that he not talk specifically about the offense conduct," Polisi said.The transcript of Papadopoulos' closed-door interview was released Tuesday by Georgia Rep.
