The Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General reportedly found that former FBI Director James Comey at times defied his superiors while leading the bureau.
ABC News reported that a draft report from the department’s internal watchdog described Comey’s behavior as “insubordinate.” Sources told the outlet that the draft report also criticized former Attorney General Loretta Lynch for her handling of the probe into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server.
The forthcoming report from the Justice Department’s internal watchdog is expected to detail the missteps from the FBI and Justice Department during the Clinton email investigation.
