Former Trump Campaign Aide Rick Gates Will Cooperate With Mueller Investigation

WASHINGTON ― Rick Gates, a former campaign aide to President Donald Trump, pleaded guilty to two charges and will cooperate with special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.

Gates pleaded guilty on Friday afternoon to conspiracy against the United States in connection with avoiding taxes as well as a charge of lying to the Special Counsel’s Office and the FBI.

Gates could be sentenced to about five years in federal prison under the sentencing guidelines, though there’s the potential he could get less time.
