A federal grand jury impaneled by special counsel Robert Mueller is still conducting a 'robust on-going' investigation, even after his team has concluded its work and disbanded, federal prosecutor testifies.
The revelation that the panelists were still in the midst of a robust investigation came as part of the government's objection to reveal the identity of a witness challenging a subpoena to appear before the Mueller's grand jury.
Judge Beryl Howell said that depends on whether there's still an ongoing grand jury investigation, and asked the government whether that's the case.Townsend, the attorney seeking the records, told ABC News she was not sure what to make of the disclosure. The judge did acknowledge public interest in this case and ordered the release of additional briefs and transcripts in the case, but stopped short of making decision on whether the identity of the company needs to be shielded. The judge is expected to issue a memorandum on the company's identity soon, and the government has been given 30 days to redact additional documents to be disclosed.
"The identity of the company is integral to the public's understanding of this matter," Townsend said.
