Obstruction of Justice Under United States v Aguilar

Obstruction of Justice Under United States v Aguilar

In his report, Special Counsel Robert Mueller cited several Supreme Court cases interpreting what constitutes obstruction of justice. One of the cases referenced in the Mueller Report is United States v Aguilar, 515 U.S. 593 (1995), in which the Court held that uttering false statements to an investigating agent who might or might not testify before a grand jury is not sufficient to constitute obstruction.
