robert mueller probe. >> at this point we don't know the precise nature of the charges nor who could be charged. evan perez has more for us. >> reporter: a federal grand jury in washington approved the first charges in a special investigation led by robert mueller. the charges are sealed under by order of a federal judge. it's unclear what the charges are and at this point it's not clear whether those under indictment have been notified. mueller was appointed in may to lead the investigation into russian meddling in the 2016 u.s. elections, and under the regulations governing the special counsel investigations, deputy attorney general rod rosenstein who has the oversight of the russian investigation would have been made aware of any charges before they were taken before the grand jury. on friday top lawyers who led the mueller probe were seen entering the courtroom at the d.c. federal court where the grand jury meets to hear testimony in the russian investigation. after more then a year of investigation first began by the fbi, this is a big moment all involved have been waiting for. evan perez, cnn w

. >> to your colleague, our colleague, evan, to bring charges like this, who would have had to have approved them? >> well, robert mueller is in charge of this investigation, don, but he does still report to rod rosenstein, who is the deputy attorney general. and for the purposes of this investigation, he is the ultimate authority. we're told based on the reading of the regulations he would have had to bring those charges to rod rosenstein for him to review, and if rosenstein did not view them to be appropriate, then he would be able to say you can't bring them. this is part of the way how this would work. the approval process is not exactly a formal approval process, but certainly rod rosenstein would have to be able to review these before this was being brought to the grand jury, don. >> charges are sealed under orders from a federal judge as pamela reported there. but pamela, do we have any idea who the charges are against and what kind of charges they are? >> we have a sense of who the charges are against, the person or people, but our understanding is that the people or person who has been charged have not b

what this tells you about what robert mueller and his team are doing, given the information that evan perez reported before, that there was a reason to try to get this done before the close of the month. because of the statute of limitation on some of the tax issues here. >> right, so it's been difficult to sort of opine on mueller's strategy. his team has played it really close to the chest. one thing that you might sort of speculate is that he's bringing these charges early in an attempt to mount some pressure on actors like manafort and gates in order to incentivize them to flip. to give them additional information that's going to allow him to bring further charges. that's sort of one possibility. the other possibility is that, you know, they were up against a clock and they needed to file these charges. they thought that they had a case that they could prove beyond a reasonable doubt in court. and so they thought this was the appropriate moment to indict. the other thing is that those aren't necessarily mutually exclusive, right? it could be that while they were up against a time

robert mueller's investigation. >> important points here, though. at this point, we don't know the nature of those charges, we don't know exactly who could be charged, but we get the latest now from from cnn's evan the perez. >> a federal grand jury in washington has approved the first charges in the investigation led by special counsel robert mueller. we're told by sources that the charges are still sealed under orders from a federal judge and plans are being made for anyone to be taken into custody as soon as monday. it's unclear what the charges are and at this point it's not clear whether those under indictment have even been notified. special counsel representatives declined to comment. under the regulations governing the special counsel investigations, deputy attorney general rod rosenstein would have been made aware of any charges before they were taken before the grand jury. on tri, top lawyers who are helping to lead the mueller probe, including veteran prosecutor andrew wiseman, were seen entering the federal courtroom where the grand jury meets to hear testimony on the russian investigation. this is a big moment all involved have been waiting for. everybody perez, cnn, washington. >>

>> carter evans, thank you very much. dr. robertnnox hill hospital here in new york city. fran townsend and paul violas are also here. we talked to dr. david egis earlier, talking about the decisions that have to be made. >> it's an ethical and moral dilemma that all physicians and health care providers go through. we try to save everyone. unfortunately that's not the case. the way this process goes is that the people who need immediate treatment who have, for example, a collapsed lung who can't breathe, they're treated first and tagged red. others who are less severe that might be bleeding they're a tier lower. we call those yellow patients. at skeent we have an elaborate system, mass casualty. we tag these patients, who can be treated first. a head injury who is barely breathing we try to open their airway. if there's not much chance of saving them, we have to move on. this is what we go through in trying to understand and deal with this. >> because you have seconds to make that decision. >> that's correct. when have you 100 peopl

cnn has learned that special counsel robert mueller team met with the ex-british spy who authored the dossier on the election. shimon prokupecz broke the story with evan perez and pamela brown. what are you learning? >> we believe the meeting, we're told the meeting took place over the summer. bob mueller's team traveled overseas and met with the former british spy who as you say put together this somewhat controversial dossier which talked about russian possible russian collusion and basically what we've been told is that during the overseas trip, mueller's team met with him. we don't know what was discussed in the meeting, what was learned in that -- in those meetings, but previously steele, the man who put this together, has met with the fbi and has provided them some information on the sources he used to put the do's s dossier together to compile the memos. now it's all about whether or not steele is going to meet with congressional investigators. they had earlier in the week expressed interest in meeting with him. he has not ruled that out. >> as far as the intel community, how do they view this dossier and its validity? >> that's right. so last

robert mueller. we learned that someone else, that would mean a third person, has already pleaded guilty to something connected with this. let's get to cnn justice correspondent evanwhat do we know? what's going on here? >> well, john, now we have information on george papadopolous who pleaded guilty in lying to the fbi. we have the first indictment from mueller that has some connection to the 2016 presidential campaign. papadopolous admits he lied when he was asked about contacts to russia. in particular, there was some conversations back in march of 2016 shortly after he had joined the trump campaign and he was in contact with a professor from russia who according to the fbi has close ties with the russian government. and according to this information that he now admits, he says that this meeting was about promises from the russian government to possessing dirt on hillary clinton in particular about thousands of e-mails that they said they had. again, this professor who is not named in these documents was in touch with george papadopolous shortly before he became -- shortly after he joined the trump campaign as a foreign policy adviser and that timing is importa
