Special counsel examines conflicting accounts as scrutiny of Roger Stone and WikiLeaks deepens

“I remember saying, ‘Roger, I thought you had a back channel,’” Credico said. “He said something to the effect of, ‘Yes, but I can’t use him all the time.’” Credico relayed that account to the grand jury last month, according to a person familiar with his testimony.

Stone at first denied Credico’s claim that he suggested having a conduit to reach WikiLeaks, calling his old friend a “perjurer” and saying he’d relish the opportunity to confront Credico in court.
