Referring Comey to the IG ...
These two are “old,” report for first one is out:
- Comey referred to IG for leaking notes of meeting with Trump
- Comey indirectly referred to IG for allgations FISA process was abused
This is “new” today:
- Comey referred to to IG for lying to the Senate
IG referring Comey to the DOJ ...
- Leaking of notes, DOJ declined to prosecute
- FISA abuse, TBD
- Lying to the Senate, TBD
Referral to IG is not a pre-requisite for being indicted. Neither is being referred directly to the DOJ a pre-requisite for being indicted. Congress people have referred various actors to the DOJ in many cases.
This is about the referral that occurred earlier...and he will not be prosecuted for those naughty deeds attached to his memoes.
Thank you for the breakdown an for providing clarity!
