Virelli III co-authored, along with five other legal scholars, the book <em>The Mueller Investigation and Beyond <\/em>published by Carolina Academic Press this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the publisher: \u201cThe Mueller Investigation and issues emanating from that investigation are at the heart of <a href=\"https:\/\/cap-press.com\/books\/isbn\/9781531016753\/The-Mueller-Investigation-and-Beyond\">this book<\/a>, providing a contextual setting for learning and reviewing materials across the law school curriculum. The book includes cases, essays, and other materials that allow it to be used as a capstone course for classroom discussion in areas of administrative law, civil procedure, counterintelligence and congressional investigative activity, constitutional law, criminal law and procedure, election law, evidence, and professional responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The book was used Nov. 3, 2019, in a special class at Stetson called the Mueller Investigation and Beyond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Professor Virelli and I authored this book for the purpose of providing materials to law students so that they could understand the appointment of a special counsel and the Mueller Report,&#8221; said Podgor.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Chapter One, Podgor provides a general overview of the appointment and purpose of having a special counsel in this instance.\u00a0 It also covers Special Counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s submission of his Report and the statements made by Attorney General William Barr upon release of the un-redacted portions of the Report. This chapter provides the contextual setting for the later chapters in the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stetson.edu\/law\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/LouisVirelliNewHeadshot-1024x899.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19507\" width=\"186\" height=\"163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/law\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/LouisVirelliNewHeadshot-1024x899.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/law\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/LouisVirelliNewHeadshot-500x439.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/law\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/LouisVirelliNewHeadshot-768x674.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 186px) 100vw, 186px\" \/><figcaption>Professor Louis J. Virelli<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Chapter Two, Virelli, looks at the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and the controversies raised following his appointment. It examines cases where a special counsel appointment has been reviewed in courts. Both administrative law and constitutional law are the focus of this chapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Chapter Seven, Podgor, looks at Obstruction of Justice, the focus of Volume Two of the Mueller Report. It dissects the applicable federal obstruction statutes and considers this with the Mueller Report\u2019s legal framework.\u00a0 It then looks at the executive summaries that match the law with the alleged conduct. It concludes by examining statutory and constitutional defenses that were considered during the Mueller Investigation. This chapter offers an examination of criminal law, federal criminal law, and white-collar crime issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About Professors Podgor and Virelli<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A former deputy prosecutor and criminal defense attorney, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stetson.edu\/law\/faculty\/podgor-ellen-s\/\">Professor Ellen S.
