that Mueller has set up some kind of dead-man's switch that will make sure the investigations will continue - like an automatic referral of all the cases and the files to the appropriate U.S. Attorney's office before they can lock him out of his office?

I'd guess it'd be sent to other state AG's who could pick up the baton and run as well as to the newspapers who would make it all public.

It would trigger a shitstorm, but trump's already facing a shitstorm , so all bets are off.

Mueller is investigating federal crimes, so files could be referred to DDC and/or SDNY or other US attorneys. If the same facts support state crimes, presumably that info could be made available to state AGs. The files would not be made public because that would damage incomplete investigations, some of which might include classified information.
