Barak Cohen was quoted in the CBC News article, "Michael Flynn is Probably Helping Mueller's Trump-Russia Probe and it Could be a Big Break for the Case," regarding Michael Flynn's involvement in the investigation of links between Russia and the 2016 Trump presidential campaign.

Now it appears that Flynn might already be divulging what he knows, and likely opening a line of communication with special counsel Robert Mueller's investigators.

The legal manoeuvre, while not proving they have flipped and decided to co-operate with Mueller's investigators, "is the clearest indication we've seen to date that Flynn is co-operating with prosecutors," said former federal prosecutor Barak Cohen.
