The Fusion GPS/FBI collusion comes very close to what you describe.

Collusion? What do you mean by that term?

You mean the FBI hired Fusion GPS for official business? I believe the term you are looking for is "contracting".

I think the reference is to the DNC funding Fusion GPS through a cutout (to evade campaign finance laws) and then providing the Steele dossier to the FBI. Which proceeded to lie about it to the FISA court in order to spy on Americans. That sort of thing.
