Media reports did not mention a cause of death for Mueller, a decorated Vietnam War veteran who led the FBI in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the U.S.The New York Times last year reported that Mueller had Parkinson's disease. These included Trump's attempts to have the special counsel fired and to limit the scope of the investigation as well as the president's efforts to prevent the public from knowing about a 2016 meeting at Trump Tower in New York between senior Trump campaign officials and Russians. Mueller then earned a law degree from the University of Virginia and later became a federal prosecutor and headed the Justice Department's criminal division, supervising cases including prosecution of the crime boss John J. Gotti and the probe into the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Scotland, before Bush chose him to lead the FBI.
