Congressional leaders are raising questions about whether FBI Director James Comey misled lawmakers or even perjured himself over the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s emails.

New letters show the FBI made immunity deals and side agreements with several witnesses in the case, the New York Post reports. 

One of those agreements prevented investigators from reviewing e-mails from Clinton’s Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills to Paul Combetta, who was Clinton’ server administrator. Yet the FBI “knew of conference call between Secretary Clinton’s attorneys and Mr. Combetta, his use of BleachBit, and the resulting deletions, further casting doubt on why the FBI would enter into such a limited evidentiary scope of review.”

That raises serious questions: Did Comey really investigate Clinton and her aides for obstruction of justice, as he told Congress after clearing Clinton of wrong doing?

While speaking under oath, Comey told Congress that he reviewed all of the evidence and concluded no one was trying to hide information.

“We did not find evidence to indicate that they did the erasure to conceal things of any sort,” he swore. “We didn’t find evidence of evil intent to obstruct justice there.”
