I think that US media needs to be very precise in how they talk about what's happened today. They need to say that while Roger Stone has not been CHARGED with colluding with a Russian cutout through an intermediary, he has been ACCUSED of doing so in a Special Counsel indictment.
2/ Mueller had the option of bringing an indictment that didn't disclose Stone's collusion with a Russian cutout through an intermediary, and instead he chose to provide a wealth of information about not just Stone's collusion but also that of Trump's campaign. We *must* say so.
3/ The reason Mueller accused Stone of collusion without charging him with it is that he wants Stone's cooperation against Trump, Kushner, Prince, Bannon, Don Jr. or all of the above. So what he's done is let us and Stone see the tip of the iceberg as to how much evidence he has.
