Hillary Clinton, thanks to James Comey, escaped criminal prosecution for violating the Espionage Act.
Now it is Comey who may have violated that same law. If he did, will Comey escape prosecution, courtesy of his good friend, Robert Mueller?
The fired FBI Director’s legal predicament comes as The Hill reports that Comey authored seven memorandums reflecting the contents of his conversations with President Trump and that four of the memos “have been determined to contain classified information.”
If this is true and Comey kept these documents in his personal possession upon leaving government service and conveyed some of them to another individual without authorization, then it would appear that he committed multiple felonies under the Espionage Act.
It is a crime to mishandle classified information: 18 USC 798 and 1924 prohibit a government official from removing a classified document from its proper place of custody to a location which is unsecure and disclosing it to an unauthorized person. Is this what Comey did? It sure looks like it.
Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of State, stored 110 emails containing classified information on her home computer server, an unauthorized place. Yet, Comey misinterpreted the criminal statute by claiming she did not “intend to violate the law.” This is not the legal standard, as any knowledgeable lawyer will tell you. Clinton was never indicted, though she should have been.

Timing is everything. Someone is playing let’s make a deal.
disband and remove the special prosecutor
I would say that is grounds for firing Mueller.
Mueller is as CORRUPT as COMEY is!!!! FIRE HIS ASS!!!
It wouldn’t shock me if Comey has already been granted immunity from prosecution on any and all of this, in return for telling his side of the story to Special Counsel Mueller in the course of Mueller’s investigation into the supposed “obstruction” by Trump of the supposed Russia investigation by firing Comey.
Like Hillary, these are Ruling Class people we are dealing with here.
There, fixed the first line of the article...
Bump!
My guess is that’s exactly why he was recommended.
“My guess is Mueller will save his boy Comey from prosecution.”
If he does then we know the fix is in.
I’d say there are about 20 people that have already received full immunity.
That Comey laid out before “We, the People” a clear FBI investigative bill of indictment of HRC and then appointed himself judge and jury has to be one of the most ridiculous happenings in FBI history.
seven memoranda?

That’s me too. These people aren’t going to give up. They’ll try _anything_ when the house of cards is about to fall.
You nailed it. What Comey did was pathetic in that he expected everyone to swallow it, I suppose he knew there were many that would cover for him.
A much better deal than anything Monte Hall would ever offer.
Separate and unequal “justice” of the ruling class. The deep state at work. The founders would not be pleased.
