Special counsel Robert Mueller is reviewing Blackwater founder Erik Prince’s communications, according to an ABC News report published Monday.

A spokesperson for Mr. Prince told ABC News that he provided Mr. Mueller with “total access to his phone and computer.”

On June 19, Mr. Prince, brother of Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, told The Daily Beast that he was cooperating with the Mueller investigation.

The Mueller investigation is looking into several meetings involving Russians that Mr. Prince had a hand in organizing. Mr. Prince is accused of attempting to set up backchannel communications between the Trump administration and Russia during meetings with Kirill Dmitriev, a Russian businessman.
