WASHINGTON (AP) — A draft statement former FBI Director James Comey prepared in anticipation of concluding the Hillary Clinton email case without criminal charges was heavily edited to change the "tone and substance" of the remarks, a Republican senator said Thursday.

Some of the edits proposed to the May 2016 draft, obtained by The Associated Press, appear to soften the gravity of the bureau's findings.

Comey, for instance, initially wrote that the FBI believed that Clinton and her aides were "grossly negligent" in their handling of classified information, language also contained in the relevant criminal statute.    https://www.yahoo.com/news/senator-comeys-remarks-clinton-probe-heavily-edited-212038281--politics.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/senator-comeys-remarks-clinton-probe-heavily-edited-212038281--politics.html
