You Vote: With the new revelations about James Comey, how likely is it he will go to prison?

James Comey played the victim card in fighting his indictment on charges of misleading Congress, but that strategy boomeranged when prosecutors and his old agency released an avalanche of new evidence showing the ex-FBI director hoped to please Hillary Clinton, cheered on media leaks he claimed he did not sanction, and wrote emails and notes that directly conflict with his past congressional testimony.

Part of that unflattering portrait of Comey, prosecutors revealed Monday, came from long-hidden files that the new FBI Director Kash Patel found in burn bags and secret storage rooms at the bureau's headquarters.

The evidence included proof that Comey used a private email account to conduct FBI matters — including media strategy with a top lieutenant — at the same time his agency probed Clinton for improperly using her own private email for government business.

Comey openly said in the days before the 2016 election that he expected to be working soon for President-elect Hillary Clinton and was being kept apprised by a top FBI aide on efforts to anonymously provide information to the news media.
