(8,694 posts)43. How Cantor finds out
Jill Kelley has a friend who is low rank FBI, lets call him Agent X, she reports the emails to him. He then reports this to the FBI who officially investigates. Meanwhile, Agent X is frustrated with investigation and goes to Congressman Dave Reichert (R) of Washington and tells him about the Petraeus affair. Congressman Reichert then tells Eric Cantor (R) who goes higher up in FBI and tells them.
Agent X meanwhile, is sending nekkid pics to his "friend" Jill Kelley.
