A report released by the Office of Inspector General Friday concluded that former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe repeatedly lied about authorizing sensitive disclosures to the media.

The report states McCabe told then-FBI Director James Comey and investigators he was unaware of who authorized aides to speak with a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reporter in October 2016 for an article entitled, “FBI in Internal Feud Over Hillary Clinton Probe.”

However, when questioned under oath on November 29, 2017, McCabe “contradicted his prior statements by acknowledging that he had authorized the disclosure to the WSJ,” made by his then-Special Counsel and the then-Assistant Director for Public Affairs.

The report states McCabe violated several FBI Offense Codes regarding Lack of Candor.
