Defiant Jerome Corsi willing to die in jail over Mueller standoff

Right-wing conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi said he would rather die in jail than take a plea deal for allegedly lying to special counsel Robert Mueller.

Corsi, a key part of Mueller’s investigation into whether there was a connection between WikiLeaks and President Trump’s inner circle, plans on fighting the charge that he lied under oath to Mueller’s team. Mueller’s team believes Corsi had knowledge of emails hacked from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta’s personal Gmail account and shared information with Trump confidant Roger Stone.
