U.S. Lawmaker Demands Answers from DoJ Over FBI Leak Probe

Josh Gerstein writes in The New York Sun:

The ranking member of a House committee is demanding answers from the Justice Department about recent reports in The New York Sun that intelligence agencies failed to cooperate with FBI investigations into leaks of classified material and that the FBI's files on some leak probes have disappeared.

The top Republican on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Rep. Thomas Davis of Virginia, said he was troubled by the Sun's report last week that FBI documents showed at least three leak investigations appeared to have been closed after case agents repeatedly complained about a lack of cooperation from the "victim agency."
