Prosecutors recalled former FBI Agent Michelle Taylor after Rick Gates testified to introduce evidence connected to Roger Stone's efforts to influence Randy Credico. Prosecutors sought to admit a transcript of a Godfather II scene Stone used in attempts to prompt Credico to lie. The examination shifted to Guccifer 2.0 and the July 22, 2016 Wikileaks release of Democratic National Committee emails. Taylor confirmed that the online persona Guccifer 2.0 took credit for the DNC documents. Prosecutors displayed Government's Exhibit 1, a transcript of Stone's House Intelligence Committee testimony, and had Taylor read highlighted exchanges about Russia and hacked emails.
