With the FBI having obtained a warrant to begin poring over the 650,000 reported emails found on Anthony Weiner's computer, attention shifts to just what the FBI may find, with Democrats alleging that much of the thousands of emails allegedly sent from Huma Abedin's computer are duplicates or otherwise innocuous, while critics alleging more deleted and/or confidential emails may emerge. On her, behalf, however, long-time Hillary aide Huma Abedin has told the FBI she was not aware any of her emails were on the laptop investigators seized as part of its probe info Anthony Weiner's investigation.
According to Politico, the FBI engaged in a back and forth over the weekend with Abedin or her attorney, when Abedin explained the situation.
"She says she didn't know they were there," a source familiar with the investigation said. This is a sensitive topic for Abedin and the Clinton campaign, because on previous occasions, Huma - under oath - disclosed that all the emails in her possession had been accounted for and handed over to the FBI.
As CNBC adds,"there are a number of scenarios that would explain how the emails got onto the laptop without Abedin's knowledge, including that they were somehow automatically backed up from the cloud. But investigators will want to know how this happened and if there is any indication that Abedin misled them about the existence of emails.

I’m not saying it is, but it does smell like high level espionage may be affoot here.
First squealer gets the best deal.
Will that be Huma, Carlos Danger, or some other cohort?
Lawyers are getting rich.
They are not ON his computer, sweetie. They are in the cloud. Wait until that shoe drops. Hillary’s company provided the free backup service without her knowing about it. Or did she?
Don't think so, too many other people (NYPD included) has seen the data...too much potential for leaks.
I think the NY cops who came to examine what they’d recovered off Wiener’s IT equipment...was probably just sitting there and grinning from ear to ear when he came upon the email index.
bet that cops wife got a workout that evening...
Yep. They're there. And the NSA didn't have to lift a finger.
Please help us to never see Hellary in yoga pants doing the backward facing dog.
That’s what I was thinking.
I’m guessing those 600K+ emails on that laptop are not unopened.
Huma “can’t recall” forwarding 600,000 sensitive government emails to her yahoo account over the past many years....
Preposterous
I think this was the mechanism for her to take markings off and then get info out per the email showing Hillary asking that to be done...
I know Huma said she never deletes old emails, but still ...
650,000 emails? Seriously? Six hundred and fifty THOUSAND?
If I saved every spam, junk and real email I had ever received for the past 10 years, I don’t think I could get the number up past 60,000. Combine Huma’s work and private total with whatever Weiner Boy added (must be some doozies in there, ya think?) then I still can’t see even a quarter-million total.
But 650,000 emails?
I feel bad for the cops, both state and federal, who have to sift through such an ocean of documents. Do they set up folders and toss one email into the Weiner bucket and the next into the Huma bucket and the next into the Suspicious bucket after reading them? And how to they check each email against the Already Released Thousands of emails? Keyword checks?
I have this mental image of a ballroom full of agents, each sitting in front of a terminal, reading email after email after email then sorting each one into different file folders.
Just imagine the eye strain headaches ... and imagine what unexpected little treasures they’re going to find. Fascinating.
Yup
I have to believe that Huma did not have the intent to hoard those emails........
Comey could truthfully say the same at this point.
I think they are all incredibly IT competent. They’re lying behind these mysterious things called computers. They are all living in the ‘90s using the excuse Grandma doesn’t know how to use a computer. If HRottenC uses a Blackberry she knows way more than the average Joe.
Huma was in college when the Internet first became publicly available. Gimme a break.

Hillary has virtually zero knowledge. She knows roughly five or six buttons on one particular system (the Blackberry) and that’s it. I think part of her big issue is that she knew if she walked into the State Department....you had the unclass system, the secret system, and the SCI system. Zero chance that she’d come to operate or function with all of these.
As for Huma, I doubt seriously she knows how to sync up different systems, move PST files around or perform basic administrator functions. She might know enough to work Microsoft Word and Excel, and basic email functions. The fact that this pst file was sitting on Wiener’s computer? It does appear that she had no idea about that. If she didn’t do it....who did? Wiener? The guy is hopeless...having zero talent.
or/ Hillery wins and Huma was to store them for her future library?
I disagree. How could someone working closely with Hillary Clinton for 20+ years NOT want an insurance policy against Arkancide?
Nor does Huma know how those emails ended up in hostile countries.
