Now, fortunately for him, he's just a joke.

"According an Office of the Inspector General report released Thursday, Comey violated DOJ and FBI policies, as well as the FBI's employment agreement, by keeping copies of four of his memos in a personal safe and asking a law professor friend to make one memo public after Trump fired him in May 2017."

I. Introduction

This report describes the investigation by the Department of Justice (DOJ or

Department) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) into the creation, storage, and

handling of certain memoranda (Memos) written by former Federal Bureau of

Investigation (FBI) Director James B. Comey. Between January 6, 2017, and April

11, 2017, while Comey was Director of the FBI, he memorialized seven one-on-one

interactions that he had with President-elect and President Donald J. Trump.1

Throughout this report, these Memos are referred to as Memo 1 through Memo 7,

numbered chronologically according to the date each Memo was written. Comey,

who had original classification authority as FBI Director, marked a small amount of

information in Memo 1 as classified at the time that he wrote it. Comey also

believed that Memo 3 contained classified information when he wrote it, but did not

mark the document as classified. Comey kept signed originals of Memos 2, 4, 6,

and 7 in a personal safe in his home and, following his May 2017 removal as FBI

Director, provided his personal attorneys with copies of Memos 2, 4, and 6, and a

redacted version of Memo 7; Comey never took copies of Memos 1, 3, and 5 to his

home, and never shared these Memos with anyone outside the FBI.

In June 2017, following Comey’s removal as FBI Director, the FBI reviewed

the Memos to determine if any of the Memos contained classified information. The

FBI determined that Memos 1 and 3 contained information classified at the

“SECRET” level, and that Memos 2 and 7 contained small amounts of information

classified at the “CONFIDENTIAL” level. The FBI designated Memos 4, 5, and 6 as

unclassified, “For Official Use Only.”

This matter was referred to the OIG for review in July 2017 by then-Acting

FBI Director Andrew G. McCabe, consistent with Department regulations and the

Inspector General Act, after the FBI determined that Comey may have shared with

his attorneys Memos that contained classified information. At the time, the OIG

also was aware of Comey's June 8, 2017 congressional testimony that he had

authorized a friend (who was also one of his personal attorneys) to provide the

contents of Memo 4 — which did not contain any classified information — to a

reporter for The New York Times. The focus of the OIG's investigation was to

determine whether Comey violated Department or FBI policies, or the terms of his

FBI Employment Agreement, in his handling of the Memos during and after his

tenure as FBI Director. The OIG's investigation included review of the Memos as

well as numerous additional documents, emails, and news articles; and forensic

analysis of certain computer systems. As part of this investigation, the OIG also

interviewed 17 witnesses, including former Director Comey and Daniel Richman,

the individual who, at Comey's request, shared the contents of one of the Memos

with a reporter for The New York Times.

Through our investigation, we learned that Comey considered Memos 2

through 7 to be his personal documents. He created Memo 2 and Memo 4 on his

personal laptop computer, and kept signed originals of four of the Memos — Memo

2, Memo 4, Memo 6, and Memo 7 — in his personal safe at home, while he was

serving as FBI Director. He also generated a duplicate set of “originals” of Memos

2 through 7 for his Chief of Staff, James Rybicki, to maintain at the FBI. When

Comey was removed as FBI Director on May 9, 2017, Comey still had copies of

Memos 2, 4, 6, and 7 in his personal safe at home. After being removed as

Director, Comey did not report to the FBI that he had copies of these Memos.

Comey subsequently provided his copies of Memos 2, 4, 6, and 7 to the Office of

Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III on June 7, 2017. 2

On May 14, 2017, Comey used his personal scanner and private email

account to provide electronic copies of Memos 2, 4, 6, and 7 to one of his personal

attorneys. Three days later, on May 17, that attorney provided, via a personal

email account, copies of these four Memos to two other attorneys, who were also

part of Comey's legal team. Of the Memos Comey shared with his attorneys,

Memo 2 contained six words that the FBI determined in June 2017 to be classified

at the “CONFIDENTIAL” level;3 Memos 4 and 6 contained information that the FBI

determined in June 2017 to be “For Official Use Only,” but did not contain classified

information; and Memo 7 was redacted by Comey before transmission, which

obscured the information in Memo 7 that the FBI determined in June 2017 to be

classified. Comey did not seek authorization from the FBI before providing Memos

2, 4, 6, and 7 to his attorneys.

On May 16, 2017, Comey provided a separate copy of Memo 4 to Richman,

who was one of Comey's attorneys and also a close personal friend. Richman also

had served as a Special Government Employee at the FBI during a portion of the

time that Comey was FBI Director. Comey sent photographs of both pages of

Memo 4 to Richman via text message from Comey's personal cell phone. Comey

instructed Richman to share the contents of Memo 4, but not the Memo itself, with

a specific reporter for The New York Times. Comey did not seek FBI authorization

before providing the contents of Memo 4, through Richman, to a reporter. As

noted above, the FBI later marked Memo 4 “For Official Use Only” and determined

that it did not contain classified information. We found no evidence that Comey or

his attorneys released any of the classified information contained in any of the

Memos to members of the media.

Upon completing our investigation, pursuant to Section 4(d) of the Inspector

General Act of 1978, the OIG provided a copy of its factual findings to the

Department for a prosecutorial decision regarding Comey's conduct. See 5

U.S.C.A. App. 3 § 4(d) (2016). After reviewing the matter, the Department

declined prosecution. Thereafter, we prepared this report to consider whether

Comey’s actions violated Department or FBI policy, or the terms of Comey’s FBI

Employment Agreement. As described in this report, we conclude that Comey’s

retention, handling, and dissemination of certain Memos violated Department and

FBI policies, and his FBI Employment Agreement.4
