Why did Mueller's indictments skip over the most obvious and pertinent statute that was violated?

Actually, Mueller indicted the Russians only for violating 18 U.S.C. §371, 1343 and 1344, and §1082(A).

The Russians obviously violated this statute; they spent millions of dollars to promote the candidacies of Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump and Jill Stein, and to oppose the candidacies of Hillary Clinton, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.

So why weren't they charged with the most pertinent crime they committed? Because Christopher Steele arguably violated the same law.

Perhaps the reason why Robert Mueller did not make the announcement himself, but rather let his boss do it, is that he wanted to avoid potential questions about the statute that his indictments ignored.

I hope there will an opportunity for Congress to call Mueller to testify and explain why his indictment dog didn't bark at the obvious statute that was violated.

Robert Mueller's indictments announced Friday are most notable for what Sherlock Holmes famously called "The dog that didn't bark." There was a clear, obvious, and pertinent statute that could have been applied to the alleged crimes but wasn't.

Mueller indicted the Russians only for violating 18 U.S.C. §371, 1343 and 1344, and §1082(A).
