IG Horowitz reportedly has made a criminal referral on James Comey

American Thinker-

According to multiple sources as reported by John Solomon of The Hill, Inspector General (I.G.) Michael Horowitz has referred former FBI director James Comey for possible prosecution under the classified information protection laws under two counts:

(a) leaking classified information, and

(b) showing “lack of candor” (a euphemism for lying) with investigations, after the FBI investigated President Trump over the Russian collusion.

For the first count, Comey leaked one “confidential” memo (a technical violation) to a friend in order to be published by the media, as he himself admitted in a congressional testimony.  The memo detailed a conversation he had with Trump, after he was fired by the president on May 9, 2017.

During his spring 2018 book tour, Comey told CNN that he had written between five and ten memos about his interactions with Trump, but there is documentation for only seven memos. 

The FBI classified the memos after Comey was fired.  On May 17, 2017, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed Robert Mueller to serve as special counsel in the investigation of the “Russia collusion.”

On June 7, 2017, special agents visited Comey at home, and the former FBI director gave them four memos as “evidence,” dated between January, February, and April 2017.  On June 8, Comey testified to Congress he had leaked his memos hoping for a special counsel investigation (that had been triggered earlier). more here
