Since Comey has a law degree, and has served as the chief officer of our premier law enforcement and investigative body for several years........I would presume that his actions in releasing those memos was a lawful act. The man came across as a bit wimpy (he should have taken a tougher stance with Trump at the time.....but I guess he feared for his job), but he is not stupid, and he is not ignorant of the law.

Once he terminated he was required to turn over all government materials which would include his memos. There are also non disclosure agreements. His actions were violations. Not that he will ever be penalized like you or I. Isn't anyone else ticked off about this double standard?

SSG Michael Tellekamp - I doubt he ever signed any NDA's due to the nature of his termination. He was in LA and heard it on TV. Trump had the termination letter delivered to FBI HQ, but according to Comey he never went back to HQ after arrival in DC. At least not that day, as he testified that he went straight home. They probably had orders to not let him in the building. They may have boxed his personal stuff up, or even allowed him in with escorts later. That has not been made clear, or at least I haven't seen anything on it.

CWO3 (Join to see) - You sign an NDA at the inproccessing or start of your job. That way the organization is covered if it is a hostile termination. Never think the last NDA was required, they had you on your first day of work. That is why I was a jerk on inspections in my early days. The SF 312 NDA is the first exhibit in an espionage or wrongful disclosure case.

OK, I wouldn't know and only based it on hearing in the past about them signing them before leaving. That's often how it goes with termination in private sector, or after a court ruling. Thanks for clearing that up.

It should not take more than 2-3 weeks to catch a leaker. It would seem to me that if the whole FBI dept could not do the job in 6 months, someone is in the way. IMHO, I think we will find out that we have had a problem for 4 1/2 years.

You are so correct. The investigation cost money. You can not normally have excessive, no result investigations...there are other priorities... like ISIS? This has been a great tool to keep FBI busy not going after our enemies.
