 ... Here is the strange thing though - according to CNN "McCabe did not keep a copy of his memos after turning them over to Mueller, the source confirmed". That is VERY strange

 

Mueller is in possession of Andrew McCabe's memos documenting his conversations with Trump and Comey

 

Special counsel Robert Mueller is in possession of several memos from former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe documenting his conversations with President Donald Trump and then-FBI director James Comey.
The memos could go a long way in bolstering Mueller’s obstruction case against Trump.

But more importantly, the memos’ very existence is significant because it indicates McCabe believed his conversations with Trump were problematic enough to warrant documentation, in case he later had to testify about them in court.

 

McCabe was one of three top FBI officials whom Comey apprised of his conversations with Trump while he was FBI director. McCabe’s memos, some of which document his conversations with Comey about Trump, could serve as a way to corroborate Comey’s account of his interactions with the president, thereby bolstering the obstruction case against Trump.

 

McCabe’s and Comey’s memos are not, in and of themselves, admissible evidence in court. Rather, their significance stems from their very existence.

 

FBI agents are trained to compile detailed memos of conversations immediately after the fact so that they can be as accurate as possible, according to former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti.

 

Those memos can later be used to refresh their memory in the event that they have to testify about the conversations during a trial.
