Mueller’s Russia probe cost $3.2M in first four months
By Andrea Noble - The Washington Times - Tuesday, December 5, 2017
Robert Mueller’s special counsel investigation has spent $3.2 million during the first four months of his investigation, including $1.7 million on salaries and benefits for attorneys and other Justice Department employees detailed to the team.
A report issued Tuesday on expenses associated with the special counsel’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election includes a breakdown of direct and reimbursed expenses, such as salaries to detailed DOJ employees who would have been paid regardless of being detailed to Mr. Mueller’s team.
While the expenses associated with the special counsel’s team total $3.2 million, the report notes that an additional $3.5 million was spent during the course of the investigation on DOJ components that support the investigation.
That figure “approximates expenditures the components would have incurred for the investigations irrespective of the existence of the SCO,” the report states.
