Former FBI Director and special counsel Robert Mueller died Friday night at age 81, his family announced Saturday.

Mueller led the high-profile investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election, concluding in 2019 that Moscow acted to benefit Donald Trump.

The cause of his death was not immediately disclosed, though he had been suffering from Parkinson’s disease.
