You're a peach.

Aw, you beat me to it. :)
I have a theory that I would like to advance. Priestap was a career FBI officer. Although he was head of counter-intelligence, he may not actually have been involved in the Trump coup.
Here is how this could have happened. A high-level sensitive counter-intelligence operation like this one would be a code-named special access program (SAP) into which a limited number of individuals would have been "read." There is no reason that Comey cannot run such an op with his choice of CI staff and not read Priestap in. Position is no grounds for access to a special access program and in fact, using position to demand access to a SAP is grounds for termination of such a clearance and dismissal.
It may be the case not only that Priestap is singing, but also that he is not actually turned and singing, but now read into a new SAP and actively involved in the investigation - doing his job. And the payoff to his wife was just a - hey we like your work, don't make too much fuss - as Kipling wrote "Them that ask no questions isn't told a lie. Watch the wall my darling while the Gentlemen go by" instead of a quid pro quo.
After all, why would a career FBI agent betray his country. There is at least a 50% change that he never did and that is why he is still in position as chief counter-intelligence officer. He would have been the first to know that Comey threw him under the bus for an op that he wasn't even in on.
That would make anyone run to OIG and "sing" if that is what you call doing your job and filing a complaint.
