Watchdog to investigate Justice, FBI actions before election
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Justice Department’s inspector general says today he will launch an investigation into the department and FBI’s actions in the months leading up to the 2016 election, including whether department policies were properly followed by FBI Director James Comey.
Democrats have blamed Comey’s handling of an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server and his late-October release of a letter about the case as among the reasons for her loss to Republican Donald Trump.
Inspector General Michael Horowitz says the investigation would look at whether department or FBI policies were followed in relation to Comey’s actions in the case.
