EMAIL DETAILS

President Donald Trump's outside counsel on Thursday attacked former FBI Director James Comey for disclosing the content of memos he kept of his conversations with Trump, and said the White House will let the authorities determine whether to investigate the ousted FBI chief.

Marc Kasowitz said in a statement following Comey's testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee earlier Thursday that he "admitted" to sharing the contents of the memos to a personal friend, who then leaked it to the press. It is not clear if such a disclosure would be a violation.

"Today, Mr. Comey admitted that he unilaterally and surreptitiously made unauthorized disclosures to the press of privileged communications with the President," Kasowitz said. "We will leave it [to] the appropriate authorities to determine whether this (sic) leaks should be investigated along with all those others being investigated."
