Joseph Mifsud could be dead, the Democratic National Committee in Washington claimed on Friday. The Professor has been missing for months and has failed to testify in court in proceedings brought against him regarding alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Bloomberg News, Washington Times, The Hill as well as a number of other sources have reported that Mifsud is officially missing and could very well be deceased. The DNC lawyers, however, did not elaborate.

The DNC stood by its claim and indicated that an investigator had even been appointed to locate Mifsud and it was told that the Maltese London-based professor might be dead.

The news came on the same day that President Trump’s foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos was sentenced to a total of two weeks in prison for lying to investigators about the timing and scope of his contacts with the Maltese academic. Mifsud had allegedly told Papadopolous that the Kremlin had “dirt” on the Democratic Party’s nominee, Hillary Clinton.

Investigative journalist Lee Smith reported that there is no evidence to support the claim that Mifsud was a Russian spy. “Although Mifsud has travelled many times to Russia and has contacts with Russian academics, his closest public ties are to Western governments, politicians, and institutions, including the CIA, FBI and British intelligence services,” he said.
