On May 31, 2022, a [[District of Columbia]] jury acquitted Sussmann on one count of lying to investigators during a Sept. 19, 2016 meeting during which he conveyed now-debunked data that purportedly linked [[Trump Tower]] to Russia's [[Alfa Bank]]. The trial on the single count spanned almost two weeks, as prosecutors called over a dozen witnesses ranging from former FBI counsel [[James Baker]] to [[Hillary Clinton]]'s presidential campaign manager, [[Robby Mook]].
