WASHINGTON — Former FBI director James Comey is vulnerable to a possible obstruction of justice charge for his conduct in the Hillary Clinton email investigation. Comey deleted Barack Obama’s name from the Bureau’s report to conceal Obama’s knowledge of the illegal server, and also deleted evidence that Clinton’s emails were hacked by foreign adversaries.
Comey’s firing by President Donald Trump in 2017 is at the center of Comey’s friend Robert Mueller’s attempt to charge President Trump for obstruction of justice. Mueller previously announced that he would try to wrap up an obstruction case by September 11, having found no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion. Mueller will try to argue that Trump fired Comey because Comey was investigating General Flynn and the Russia case.

Evidence tampering of criminal co-conspirators?
He either did or he didn't depending on which version of the truth we are being told. If he did, it's a crime.
I bet the media will be ALL OVER This!
I mean as soon as they get to the bottom of this stormy daniels thing.
I believe it is as well. Tampering or altering data by itself (not part of an investigation) is a 6 month misdemeanor.
Collusion!
Being head of the fbi means that you get triple the penalty as for normal people. You know the law better than anyone else, you are paid big bucks to uphold the law, and you can throw innocent people into prison by your actions.
You go to jail for life for this.
