Stunned FBI agents grapple with Comey firing
Published in Alriyadh on 11 - 05 - 2017

Current and former FBI agents are still reeling from Director James Comey's unceremonious dismissal Tuesday. Many learned about it from the news, the same way Comey did.
Some of them said Wednesday that their uneasiness is heightened by questions about who will lead the bureau next. Agents say they are upset that President Donald Trump would oust Comey without giving him a chance to notify his employees. Many of them saw Comey as a good leader, even if some believed his very public actions at times set the bureau on the wrong path.
