The chain of custody of his memos is now critically important. 

First = he CLAIMS to have written then right after the meetings. He also said he wrote them on his laptop. Until the files are retrieved from that laptop, we cannot verify that actual create date of the file and we cannot verify that the file was never altered or updated. Since he sent the memo to his friend, we need to know how he sent it. We also need to know what the newspaper received so that we can compare the two. 

Did Comey's buddy the professor edit the memo? Who knows? Did anyone else edit it?

After all, he wants us to believe him based on his claim that he wrote these memos  right after the events - but how do we know that it the truth without verification?


How many people,if given the chance are going to publicly say nice things about the boss that fired them?
