“The senior adviser allegedly leaked financial reports, including information related to Mueller’s probe.” Natalie Mayflower Sours Edwards, who is a senior adviser at Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network or FinCEN, was arrested in Virginia on Friday and charged with unauthorized disclosure of suspicious-activity reports filed by banks and other financial institutions.
The criminal complaint against Edwards lists 11 BuzzFeed stories she allegedly served as a source for by providing details on financial transactions, including some that might have financed Russian activities during the 2016 campaign season and many involving associates of President Donald Trump, including his former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort.
Trump has complained bitterly about a wave of leaks from officials seeking to undercut his presidency. The charges against Edwards appear to offer further indications that some in the government have been releasing confidential information squarely related to the Mueller probe.
