Cyber Company CEO Testifies Hillary Clinton Ally Pressured Firm to Dig Dirt on Trump

A top cyber company CEO has testified under oath that an ally of Hillary Clinton's pressured his firm into compiling a report on President Donald Trump and his associates with the intention of "Digging dirt."

In August 2016, technology executive Rodney Joffe pressured Jared Novick, the CEO and part-owner of BitVoyant, with the request.

Novick testified in federal court on Tuesday during the trial of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign attorney Michael Sussmann.

The first name was Carter Page, the Trump campaign associate that was spied on by the U.S. government despite being an asset for the CIA. Richard Burt, a lobbyist, was another name, Novick said.

Novick went to Victor Oppleman, a friend who, like Joffe, was on BitVoyant's board, and aired his concerns.

Novick was testifying during the trial of Michael Sussmann, a Clinton campaign lawyer who also represented Joffe in 2016 ahead of the election.

Novick's team, after several weeks, finished the report and gave it to Joffe.
