Robert Mueller, who served as a special counsel to determine if the Russian government interfered to help then-presidential candidate Donald Trump in 2016, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago, the New York Times reported on Aug. 31.

The Times, citing a Mueller family statement, reported that he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in the summer of 2021.

“He retired from the practice of law at the end of that year,” the statement said, according to the Times. “He taught at his law school alma mater during the fall of both 2021 and 2022, and he retired at the end of 2022. His family asks that his privacy be respected.”
