Report shows FBI’s top press official during Clinton and Trump probes accepted baseball tix from CNN reporter

An FBI senior official who resigned under mysterious circumstances last year accepted baseball game tickets from a CNN reporter in 2016 and lied about it to investigators, according to a report obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller News Foundation
.
Michael Kortan accepted the tickets from the CNN journalist to at least two games, in May 2016 and September 2016.

Kortan displayed a “lack of candor” during multiple interviews about the tickets. He was prohibited under FBI policy from accepting gifts from reporters who cover the bureau.

He also accepted tickets from a New York Times reporter.

The FBI’s top press officer during the Hillary Clinton and Trump-Russia investigations accepted tickets to a Washington Nationals game from a CNN correspondent and lied about it repeatedly during interviews with the Justice Department’s inspector general, according to a report obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Michael Kortan, who served as assistant director of public affairs, displayed a “lack of candor” during multiple interviews under oath with the DOJ watchdog about how he obtained the tickets, who he went with, and whether he reimbursed the CNN journalist, according to the report.

“The OIG…concluded that Kortan lacked candor under oath when he provided answers to OIG’s questions relating to the September 2016 tickets that were misleading and false,” reads the report, which the DCNF obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.

On Oct. 16, 2018, the OIG separately released a summary of the Kortan investigation (though without identifying him). The summary said that the Justice Department declined prosecution in the case.

Why do we have to choose ?

Can't we and shouldn't we prosecute all involved in the Clinton cover up, the leakers, and those involved in the coup?

At least the guy no longer is employed by the FBI


The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.

the DOJ is never going to indict anyone involved with this crap. Might as well get used to that. Barr is like every other AG. It's like Lucy and the football. Bait and switch

+1........ But we all have to remember that "no one is above the law", right ? So I guess that nobody's above the law...... But it's just all about how the law is applied.

Pretty common in the corporate world to allow those caught at petty stuff like this to simply resign. The kicker comes when they apply for another job and when asked if the person is eligible for future employment, the old company says, "Nope".

How much tapayer money should be spent to punish a cheap chiseler who wouldn't go to jail anyway for his "crime"?
