Dozens Of Former Federal Prosecutors Sign Open Letter Criticizing James Comey
They said they were astonished and perplexed by Comeys decision to send a letter to Congress about Clinton-related emails.
A group of former federal prosecutors signed an open letter Sunday evening criticizing FBI Director James Comey for alerting Congress to new emails pertaining to Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton so close to Election Day.
The Clinton campaign drafted a version of the letter and sent it to the former federal prosecutors over the weekend. Among those who signed the letter ― which was posted to Clintons campaign website ― is former Attorney General Eric Holder.
Many of us have worked with Director Comey; all of us respect him, the letter says. But his unprecedented decision to publicly comment on evidence in what may be an ongoing inquiry just eleven days before a presidential election leaves us both astonished and perplexed.
