Justice Department Drops Case Against Flynn's Ex-Partner Rafiekian

  • Rafiekian was accused with Flynn of illegally lobbying for Turkey without registering as foreign agents.
  • Rafiekian was initially convicted but the verdict was later overturned due to insufficient evidence.
  • Prosecutors decided not to pursue the case further, deeming it not in the public interest.
  • The case against Rafiekian was a spinoff of the Mueller investigation into Russian election interference.
  • Dropping the case marks the conclusion of years of litigation related to Flynn's consulting firm and the 2016 election.
