These are the quotes that appear to be applicable in this case:
knowingly converts to his use
retains the same with intent to convert it to his use or gain
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both
Retaining the memos of the meetings with the president is, converting to his own use. He used the memos for record that he was intimidated by the president and did not confer with a higher counsel to see f he could divulge these to a news reporter.
Retains the same to convert it to his own use or gain. It's not sure if he was using these memos in a case already being investigated, or trying to open a obstruction of justice and collusion case. In either case, those memos would be property of the FBI and he clearly broke the law, a contract or protocol.
If the copy was government property it's theft. Comeys memo's were government property and he took them for what looks like monetary gain.

You try going with that as a legal theory, but then every ex-government official who ever wrote a memoir would be subject to it.

The originals were not government property. They were not work product or concerning an ongoing investigation. They were no more FBI property than the note Comeys secretary made telling him his wife called, and to pick up a guart of milk on his way home.
So, what is wrong with this thread?The OP is one of USMB's sickest, weirdest and delusional posters. This thread is an example.
It was done on an FBI lap top during what the left claim wrongly was a criminal investigation of trump so yes, FBI business belongs to he FBI. I posted their employee handbook as well as the law omen will be prosecuted under. Stop giving your opinion and go to both links and prove me wrong. You won't because like Joe, Camp you can not. Gonna be a long 8 years for y'all.
Besides being subject to nondisclosure agreements, Comey falls under federal laws governing the disclosure of classified and unclassified information. Assuming that the memos were not classified (though it seems odd that it would not be classified even on the confidential level), there is 18 U.S.C. § 641, which makes it a crime to steal, sell, or convey “any record, voucher, money, or thing of value of the United States or of any department or agency thereof.”
Wow, you guys must be really desperate at this point.
From my understanding, permission from a higher authority has to be given before the information is used in any respect. That is what I learned from reading the different links.Retaining the memos of the meetings with the president is, converting to his own use.

Yup. Last night I was unsure, but the book deal clinched it/ Comey is not stupid. He has had anPR guy most of his career. Far as we know this could have been in the works for awhile. Even if it wasn't, he better hope Trump and his guys really are stupidly. This can get hung on his neck in a very bad way.
I believe that you are wrong due to the subject and nature of the memos. Demanding that the investigations of Flynn be stopped, the status of active investigation (is Trump a target?) is not the same as "bring milk home tonight." I think you will agree with that.If the copy was government property it's theft. Comeys memo's were government property and he took them for what looks like monetary gain.

Comey planned for the orange one to fire him in the middle of a russia investigation?

No. His superior is the AG, Jeff Sessions.
He's lost NO credibility. You watch too much Fox.This man has lost ALL credibility. He is scum I hope he dies.
The Russian effort to play with our election was and Trump was the head of the GOP compaign. Follow the dots and when Trump asked if he was part in parcel of that investigation, it was talking about the Russian attempt. When Comey answered it, he made it even worse. The two were talking about an active nvestigation.I believe that you are wrong due to the subject and nature of the memos.

Trump wasn't the subject of an investigation, so it wasn't an FBI subject. If Trump talked about the Flynn investigation, or in order to make the meeting an FBI matter, it also made it obstruction of justice.
another dunce.Comey has lost ALL credibility. He is nothing more that a partisan hack.
For which he should not be rewarded.
It was stated in the hearings. Jeff Sessions should have been notified if Comey felt intimidated.No. His superior is the AG, Jeff Sessions.
Nope, it stops at the agency head.
Just like Jeff Sessions didn't have to get permission from Trump to recuse himself.
