Townhall: FBI Investigating Hillary Clinton's Use of Private Email To Send and Receive Classified Information
Katie Pavlich | Aug 05, 2015
Last week the New York Times reported
two Inspectors General recommended the Department of Justice look into
the security of Hillary Clinton's private email server and asked it be
determined whether she kept, sent or received classified information
that could have been compromised by an outside source.
Two
inspectors general have asked the Justice Department to open an
investigation into whether sensitive government information was
mishandled in connection with the personal email account Hillary Rodham
Clinton used as secretary of state, senior government officials said
Thursday.
The request follows an assessment in a June 29 memo by
the inspectors general for the State Department and the intelligence
agencies that Mrs. Clinton’s private account contained “hundreds of
potentially classified emails.” The memo was written to Patrick F.
Kennedy, the under secretary of state for management.
Now, the FBI is looking into it. From the Washington Post:
The
FBI has begun looking into the security of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s
private e-mail setup, contacting in the past week a Denver-based
technology firm that helped manage the unusual system, according to two
government officials.
Also last week, the FBI contacted Clinton’s
lawyer, David Kendall, with questions about the security of a thumb
drive in his possession that contains copies of work e-mails Clinton
sent during her time as secretary of state.
The inquiries by the
FBI follow concerns from government officials that potentially hundreds
of e-mails that passed through Clinton’s private server contained
classified or sensitive information. At this point, the probe is
preliminary and is focused on ensuring the proper handling of classified
material.
Nick Merrill, a spokesman for Clinton’s campaign,
declined to comment on the FBI’s actions. He noted that Clinton has
called repeatedly for the State Department to release her e-mails to the
public, a process that is ongoing.
In a statement, Merrill said
that Clinton “did not send nor receive any emails that were marked
classified at the time. We want to ensure that appropriate procedures
are followed as these emails are reviewed while not unduly delaying the
release of her emails. We want that to happen as quickly and as
transparently as possible.”
We learned earlier this week
that Clinton did in fact store classified information from at least
five different intelligence agencies on her private server, which by the
way, is illegal.
