Comey Under Oath: 'Have Not Experienced Any Requests to Stop FBI Investigations' - Breitbart



?So if the Attorney General or senior officials at the Department of Justice opposes a specific investigation, can they halt that FBI investigation?? Hirono asked.

?In theory yes,? Comey answered.

?Has it happened? Hirono asked.

?Not in my experience,? Comey responded. ?Because it would be a big deal to tell the FBI to stop doing something that ? without an appropriate purpose.?

?I mean where oftentimes they give us opinions that we don?t see a case there, and so you ought to stop investing resources in it,? Comey said. ?But I?m talking about a situation where we were told to stop something for a political reason, that would be a very big deal.

?It?s not happened in my experience,? Comey said.
