A former U.S. intelligence contractor has sued fired FBI Director James Comey and other current and ex-government officials, alleging the bureau has covered up evidence provided to agents showing widespread illegal spying on Americans.

The documents show FBI agents interviewed Montgomery on videotape for several hours and collected the 47 hard drives.
