If you're referring to the Trump investigation (during his first run), then your claim is false. No court or legal investigation including that of the special counsel or general inspector's report, has reached such a conclusion.

The special counsel report did determine there was enough grounds to start an investigation but it said it should have been a preliminary investigation and not a full-blown investigation.

Also, the FBI was led by a Republican (James Comey) appointed by a Democrat (Obama) specifically because he was supposed to be independent-minded (as the Deputy AG under Bush, Comey refused to sign an extension of a warantless spying program because he felt it was illegal and the program lapsed; Comey then rushed to the hospital to make sure the AG who wasn't sick wasn't tricked into signing it)
