Federal judge seeks more information about President Trump's move to commute Roger Stone's sentence

The federal judge overseeing Roger Stone's court case on Monday called for additional information on President Trump commuting his former political adviser's 40-month prison sentence.

U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson ordered parties to provide a copy of Trump's executive order that commuted the sentence – related to the Russia collusion probe – and to supply clarification about whether the commutation applies just to Stone's prison sentence or to the prison time and the period of supervised release. 

The 67-year-old Stone, who was convicted on seven counts related to the investigation, was scheduled to report Tuesday to a prison in Georgia.

"Roger Stone is a victim of the Russia Hoax that the Left and its allies in the media perpetuated for years in an attempt to undermine the Trump Presidency," the White House said Friday in a statement. "He was treated very unfairly, as were many others in this case. Roger Stone is now a free man!"

Mueller in a Washington Post opinion piece on Saturday defended the investigation and pushed back against allegations of wrongdoing.

"Stone was prosecuted and convicted because he committed federal crimes. He remains a convicted felon, and rightly so," Mueller wrote. "We made every decision in Stone’s case, as in all our cases, based solely on the facts and the law and in accordance with the rule of law. The women and men who conducted these investigations and prosecutions acted with the highest integrity. Claims to the contrary are false."
