Roger Stone's attorney, Grant Smith, told me the below letter to lawmakers is authentic.
Smith wrote that he got a version of Stone's indictment from CNN that appears to be prior "in time to the filing and the unsealing" of the indictment.

@gatewaypundit Senate Judiciary Committee spokesperson says they received the letter.
Smith: "I should note that CNN has stated that the copy they forwarded me was sent to them by the Special Counsel’s Office as a press release, but not before the arrest of our client."

@gatewaypundit According to Smith, the metadata in the document says it was created by AAW at 11:04 p.m. on Jan. 23. Stone was arrested early on Jan. 25. I can't prove who AAW is, but Andrew Weissman would be one possibility.
@gatewaypundit The special counsel declined to comment.
I requested a copy of the PDF in question from Smith, Graham, Collins, and Mueller. No one provided a copy.

@gatewaypundit I also asked for a copy of the press release email special counsel sent CNN, which would quickly clear things up. Special counsel did not provide one.
Nevertheless, there is not enough evidence to prove that CNN got the indictment early.
