Pop star, promoter, prosecutor: The cast of Trump Jr. email
http://www.wral.com/pop-star-promoter-prosecutor-the-cast-of-trump-jr-email/16819662/
A billionaire real estate mogul, his pop singer son and a music promoter. A property lawyer and Russia's prosecutor general.
These unlikely figures populate the emails released by Donald Trump Jr. as his father's presidential campaign sought potentially damaging information in June 2016 from Russia about his opponent, Hillary Clinton.
In the emails, sent shortly after Donald Trump secured the GOP nomination, music publicist Rob Goldstone wrote to connect the younger Trump to Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya. The emails show Goldstone telling Trump that singer Emin Agalarov and his father, Moscow-based real developer Aras Agalarov, had "helped along" the Russian government's support for Donald Trump.
Goldstone also mentioned that a Russian prosecutor offered to provide the information on Clinton to the campaign. Goldstone mentioned Russia's "crown prosecutor," but may have been referring to Russia's top justice official, Prosecutor General Yuri Chaika, the equivalent of the U.S. attorney general.
