In case you missed the previous thread on this from tweeter, Gregg Jarrett had a great analysis on Fox News about the leaked memo. Here is an excerpt. Rest at link:
"Under the Federal Records Act and the FBIs own Records Management regulations, any document that is made in the course of business is the property not of the person who authored it, but the property of the U.S. government. And so are its contents. It matters not whether the document, as this one, is unclassified.
Comey improperly and, perhaps, unlawfully leaked a government document involving an FBI investigation. Comey admitted he did it to prompt the appointment of a special counsel who is now tasked with examining Russias interference in the presidential election. At the very least, Comey violated government rules by converting government property for his own use. It does not matter, legally, that he was no longer employed by the FBI. Is it a crime?
Under 18 USC 793 (Leaking Non-Classified Information), it is a crime punishable by up to 10 years imprisonment to willfully communicate or transmit national defense information, even though it is not classified. While the contents of the memo do not deal directly with national defense matters, the overall investigation does".
