While working as Hillary Clinton’s chief of staff at the State Department, Cheryl Mills lost her personal Blackberry, on which she sent emails that the State Department has determined contain classified information.
Records obtained by The Daily Caller through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit show Mills revealed that she lost her Blackberry in a March 20, 2010 email she sent to Bryan Pagliano, the State Department IT staffer who managed Clinton’s private email server.
“Somewhere b/w my house and the plane to nyc yesterday my personal bb got misplaced; no on [sic] is answering it thought [sic] I have called,†Mills wrote from her personal email account to the address Pagliano used when he worked on Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign.
Other State Department records indicate that Mills’ personal Blackberry appears to have been synced with her Gmail account. Many of the emails she sent from the personal account include footers which show they were sent from a Blackberry powered by AT&T.

I seem to recall from 2009 that one of Obama’s big issues was his refusal to give up his own blackberry. Security people told the president that blackberries were not authorized to handle classified info, so he had no choice — he could not use one.
I believe Obama managed to win that argument and he kept his blackberry. I guess his staff did too!
And what nation state is reading our state secrets :)
These people were the most naïve. I don’t suppose anyone might have thought that maybe an agent stole it from her?
Proper procedure upon losing the BB would be for her to report the loss and the IT dept (or BB admin) issue a "wipe" on the device.
-I don’t suppose anyone might have thought that maybe an agent stole it from her?-
It is much more useful to borrow it for a few minutes, install a spy app, then return it. In general, the idea behind most spy operations is that you avoid detection and don’t trigger any defensive response. (Even better, send the spy app as an attachment to an email and get it loaded onto everything that device communicates with and everything those devices communicate with. This happened at a company where I worked and they had to shut down IT worldwide for multiple divisions to deal with it. What did we lose? I have no idea.)
That would be a firing offense at certain private organizations (financial) that deal with private info.
Forgot to mention, the newer BBY has two passwords: one to get into the device and one to access the work space. If they’re mistyped X number of times the device is automatically wiped.
It probably had 1234 as the password, if it even had one.
Well, I’m sure Hillary and her coven fooled everybody by stripping off the classification markings. That way anybody who got hold of those messages would have discarded them thinking they weren’t important.
The Smartest Woman In The World is the smartest woman in the world.
Well, Cheryl Mills might be indicted eventually, but not the queen herself.
Send the link to Drudge. I think this too needs to get out to the public. It’s an example of why we fear spillage in the handling of classified information.
Heck of a time for a Stare Dept employee to lose it- same month as the NKoreans carried out an act of war on S Korea by sinking one of the South’s Navy ships... same month as Obama crapped on Netanyahu...
Man (Bryan Pagliano) behind Clinton’s server has missing emails too

I think I hear a bus starting up.
Yep, she ought to watch out where she jogs, too. She may be Fosterized.
What is it about Hil and her coworkers’ Blackberries?
Wasn’t Huma’s ‘accidentally ‘ destroyed when the feds were asking questions about Hil’s bathroom server?
Now you know why Hillary won’t be indicted,she has too much on Obozo
You mean, like with a cloth?
Or password....
