A Columbia University professor from Brooklyn went into hiding Thursday after pal James Comey revealed during his Senate testimony that the man leaked memos detailing the former FBI chief's conversations with President Trump to the press.
Daniel Richman confirmed by e-mail to several reporters that he was the 'good friend' and law school prof who Comey slipped the documents -- then hightailed it out of his tony Brooklyn Heights home and refused to answer any more questions.
Comey had just told a Senate Intelligence Committee that Richman was the conduit for the memo, which documented Trump asking Comey to drop the FBI's probe into former National Security Adviser Mike Flynn.
Richman is a former federal prosecutor who worked with Comey at Columbia in 2013. His Ivy League university's Web site crashed as people nationwide frantically tried to find out more about the mysterious middle man suddenly thrust into the biggest story in the country.

Supeona him too!
So, that incriminates Comey for leaking classified documents, right?
Cuff him and put him in jail, period.
he looks and sounds like a freak
So, Comey leaks to this guy in hopes that he will take the fall for Comey? REALLY? Comey was the leak, he needs jail time, period.
Comey threw a lot of people under the proverbial bus on Thursday, but the biggest roadkill was Comey himself. What a putz. J. Edgar Comey. Thought he'd blackmail Trump and ended up getting trumped in the process. Hatred is such a destructive thing; usually killing the hater not the hated. It seems in this case, that bit is no exception.
Leaked classified documents to a school teacher? James Comey is a creepy person.
They need to get Comey's laptop and see what else they can find.
