"The OIG determined that Comey violated applicable policies and his FBI Employment Agreement by providing one of the unclassified memos that contained official FBI information, including sensitive investigative information, to his friend with instructions for the friend to share the contents of the memo with a reporter," the IG's office said in a statement.
Comey tweeted his reaction to the report, calling out"those who defamed me" and suggested his handling of the memos would result in his prosecution.
