Preet Bharara

Stephen Sackur speaks to former US Attorney Preet Bharara. Does the Mueller report raise new questions about the resilience and integrity of the judicial process?

Stephen Sackur speaks to Preet Bharara, former US Attorney for the Southern District of New York. The Mueller Report is out and to no one's surprise it hasn't settled the bitter arguments about whether President Trump committed crimes worthy of impeachment. In fact it's raised new questions about the resilience and integrity of the judicial process. Preet Bharara was one of America's most powerful federal prosecutors until Mr Trump fired him in 2017. He's written a book about Doing Justice - but is America consistently falling short?
