Alan Dershowitz Doesn't See Any Legal Jeopardy for Trump Jr.
Fox News Insider
July 12, 2017
Legal expert Alan Dershowitz doesn't believe Donald Trump Jr. committed a crime by meeting with a Russian lawyer during his father's presidential campaign.
Trump Jr. was informed in a series of emails that attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya would offer him compromising information about Hillary Clinton in the June 2016 meeting.
Trump Jr. said nothing came from the meeting and he was unaware that Veselnitskaya was possibly Kremlin-connected.
On Fox Business Network, Dershowitz explained that even if Trump Jr. received and used material that was obtained illegally, he's not in legal jeopardy as long as he had nothing to do with the illegal nature of obtaining the information.

That's not the question in this case so why answer it?
The question is, what if Trump Jr. received and used material that was obtained from the Russian government in an attempt to influence the election?
Or, in this case, what if Trump Jr. tried to receive material that was supplied by the Russian government in an attempt to influence the election?
