Judge Rosemary Collyer, pictured above, Presiding Judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), ruled the FBI illegally outsourced an unlimited amount of top secret surveillance information to private contractors.

Judge Collyer said the FBI's "improper disclosure of raw intelligence about Americans to unauthorized individuals" was illegal. The FISA Chief Judge also said the FBI was told in previous court orders to stop outsourcing its intelligence services.

The Judge's 99-page ruling dated April 26, 2017 is attached in the post with images of the key portions of the Collyer's decision.

The blackened portions of Judge Collyer's ruling contain names of 70 private contractors and reporters. They will be identified shortly through Congressional hearings and public information lawsuits.
