The New York Times reports that the grand jury convened by prosecutor John Durham to hear evidence has expired, and sources tell the paper that there are no plans to convene another.
As the Times notes, the end of Durham’s probe is sure to disappoint former President Donald Trump.
“When John H. Durham was assigned by the Justice Department in 2019 to examine the origins of the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, President Donald J. Trump and his supporters expressed a belief that the inquiry would prove that a ‘deep state’ conspiracy including top Obama-era officials had worked to sabotage him,” the paper writes. “Now Mr. Durham appears to be winding down his three-year inquiry without anything close to the results Mr. Trump was seeking.”
