FLYNN SEEKS LENIENCY: Lawyers for former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn argued Tuesday that their client deserved to receive no more than a year of probation and 200 hours of community service for making false statements to federal investigators ... In a document filed in federal court in Washington, Flynn's attorneys said their client's cooperation with Special Counsel Robert Mueller "was not grudging or delayed", but "preceded his guilty plea or any threatened indictment and began very shortly after he was first contacted for assistance by the Special Counsel's office." Prosecutors working for Mueller said last week that Flynn had offered “substantial assistance” in “several ongoing investigations" and was entitled to avoid prison when he is sentenced next week. - Reported by Samuel Chamberlain (@SChamberlainFOX on Twitter)
