Conservative author Jerome Corsi on Monday filed a "Criminal and ethics complaint" against Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team, accusing investigators of trying to bully him into giving "False testimony" against President Trump.
The complaint, which Corsi had threatened for days, is the latest escalation between Mueller's team and its investigation targets.
According to Corsi's complaint, they wanted him to demonstrate that he acted as a liaison between Stone and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on one side and the Trump campaign on the other, regarding the release of hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee.
The complaint states that Mueller's office is now "Knowingly and deceitfully threatening to charge Dr. Corsi with an alleged false statement," unless he gives them "False testimony" against Trump and others.

In the complaint on Monday, Corsi's lawyers denied that Corsi had inside knowledge and was colluding with Assange.
"Employing his professional skills and considerable experience as an analyst and investigative journalist, Dr. Corsi logically concluded that WikiLeaks would release Podesta's emails soon in a second round 'data dump' from the same group of DNC emails stolen on July 5, 2016," the complaint reads.
