Shawn Henry as a former assistant director of the of the FBI's cyper crimes unit promoted by Robert Mueller, who then left the FBI to become a top executive for CrowdStrike, the cybersecurity firm hired by the Democratic National Committee to investigate the hack of its email system in early 2016.
Alleged DNC hack
On April 28, 2016 DNC CEO Amy Dacy informed Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussmann of a data breach. Sussmann contacted Henry. The next day the DNC claimed to have been "tipped-off" that the hacking was by Russians.
CrowdStrike’s June 2016 assessment of a Russian hack remains the sole source of evidence of the claim. The FBI, nor any other U.S. law enforcement of intelligence agency, ever verified the claim. Later, it was used to bolster the Trump-Russia collusion hoax.
MSNBC and the Kavanaugh smear
During the kavanaugh smear, Henry was presented to MSNBC's audience as a “national security analyst.” Henry told viewers, “This is not...an investigation about the sexual allegations, I think it really has moved toward credibility. At this point now, there are very clear allegations, and subsequent to the judge’s testimony, people have come out who appear to be credible who...appear to be contradicting his testimony sworn before the United States Senate.”[1]
