Attorney General William Barr , in a four-page letter to Congress , said that Mueller “ultimately determined not to make a traditional prosecutorial judgment” about whether Trump obstructed justice. Although Mueller’s report “does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him,” the special counsel wrote in his confidential report, according to Barr’s summary. The special counsel ultimately declined to “make a traditional prosecutorial judgment” as to whether the president committed obstruction of justice, leaving the decision to Barr. After months of negotiations, Mueller settled on Trump’s legal team submitting written responses to the special counsel’s questions. There will be no additional indictments from Mueller’s office, although other prosecutors could use evidence uncovered by the special counsel’s team in their own lawsuits.
