The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia has unsealed several documents in the Michael Flynn case following the government's representation that "that there no longer exists a compelling government interest to seal certain information in those records." The documents include an addendum to the government's sentencing memorandum, a memo recording an unidentified individual's communications with Flynn in January 2017, and an interview by the special counsel's office of Peter Strzok. Versions of the documents with more redactions were previously available from the government's public filings regarding Flynn's sentencing (see here and here). All three documents are available below.
