.........when prosecutor Brittain Shaw revealed that the big reason Joffe wanted his name hidden from the FBI when Sussmann made his approach to the agency with the Alfa Bank hoax was that Joffe had been fired for cause as a confidential source.

Sussmann's defense team had just gotten FBI Cyber expert David Martin to agree that Joffe was a respected DNS expert with a long history of working with the FBI and was a longtime FBI confidential source.

AND THEN...

Brittain Shaw on redirect asked Martin if he knew that Joffe had been fired as a confidential source for cause.

Martin did not know about that.

But that's OK. Apparently nobody did.
