FBI Admits Clinton Used Software Designed To "Prevent Recovery" And "Hide Traces Of" Deleted Emails
Zero Hedge ^ | 26 August 2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 08/27/2016 7:18:41 AM PDT by Lorianne

South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy appeared on Fox News today and disclosed new details about the Clinton email scandal that seem to indicate intent to destroy evidence. Per the clip below, Gowdy reveals that Clinton used "BleachBit" to erase the "personal" emails from her private server.

For those not familiar with the software, BleachBit is intended to help users delete files in a way to "prevent recovery" and "hide traces of files deleted." Per the BleachBit website:

Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster.

During his appearance on Fox, Gowdy clearly indicates that Clinton's use of BleachBit undermines her claims that she only deleted innocuous "personal" emails from her private server.

It’s called “Intent”....the one and only piece Comey said was missing.

And this will be a topic of the debate if Trump has anything to say about it.

Why is the FBI “admitting” this? The one who should be admitting this is Hillary (I wont hold my breath)

Using BleachBit to scrub her emails is intent! Blows Comey’s pathetic excuse out of the water. The cover up to protect Hillary is so big that it is almost impossible to fathom.

Only hardened criminals cover their tracks like this.

Comey’s FBI is now just a criminal enabler.

She should be indicted and he should be fired.

Comey had to know this prior to his “testimony” (i.e., cover up) on the Hill.

That only works if run before a hack. Looks like the WikiLeaks guys may have gotten the emails before the wipe. If so, this is going to get really interesting over the next few months. It seems Assange really doesn’t like Hillary and would like to take her down when the time is correct.

Intent? Intent you say?

FBI: We don't need no Stinking Intent.

Surely federal law has a felony penalty for “willful destruction of evidence”. Especially subpoenaed evidence.

The 8 discs containing the deleted emails were “discovered” by the FBI for that very reason. Assange forced their hand

Comey already told us in his presser the lawyers wiped their devices in such a way to preclude a complete forensic investigation, knowing full well the public would assume the lawyers’ devices meant Hillary’s devices. The only news would be what software was used to wipe the devices.

This is real news:
Comey’s failure to disclose the existence of the 8 discs (it so easy to ‘misplace’ 8 small discs in a giant cesspool) once Assange made it clear he has the emails. If not for Assange, those discs may have remained “ undiscovered “ forever.

ALL the people to whom the e-mails were sent have them on THEIR servers. They are not lost. They are available.
