Our federal criminal law applied to the the physical break-in at Watergate. But it doesn't work as clearly for the intangible documents stolen from the DNC.
The Report suggests to me that the reason no one in the Trump campaign was charged with conspiracy is because our federal criminal laws cannot deal with a high tech crime like the staged release of the documents the Russians hacked from the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C.
In 2016 we had a high tech burglary with Russian intelligence operatives hacking into the computers of the Democratic National Committee from a location in Russia approximately 5,000 miles away from Washington, D.C. In contrast, the Watergate burglary was a low-tech traditional burglary at Democratic National Committee headquarters aimed at stealing hard paper documents. As a result, there was no problem in making our federal criminal statutes fit the break-in.
The Mueller Report also reveals that our new high tech global world made it far more difficult to investigate the involvement of the Trump campaign in the staged release of the stolen data than it was to investigate the Nixon campaign’s involvement in the Watergate break-in.
