Source: No 'coincidence' Romanian hacker Guccifer extradited amid Clinton probe
Fox News ^ | 4/8/16 | Catherine Herridge, Pamela K. Browne

The extradition of Romanian hacker “Guccifer” to the U.S. at a critical point in the FBI’s criminal investigation of Hillary Clinton’s email use is “not a coincidence,” according to an intelligence source close to the case.

One of the notches on Guccifer’s cyber-crime belt was allegedly accessing the email account of Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal, one of Clinton’s most prolific advice-givers when she was secretary of state. It was through that hack that Clinton's use of a personal account -- clintonemail.com -- first came to light.

Former law enforcement and cyber security experts said the hacker, whose real name is Marcel Lehel Lazar, could – now that he’s in the U.S. – help the FBI make the case that Clinton’s email server was compromised by a third party, one that did not have the formal backing and resources of a foreign intelligence service such as that of Russia, China or Iran.

“Because of the proximity to Sidney Blumenthal and the activity involving Hillary’s emails, [the timing] seems to be something beyond curious,” said Ron Hosko, former assistant director of the FBI’s Criminal Investigative Division from 2012-2014.

On Tuesday, Lazar appeared in an Alexandria, Va., federal courtroom for his detention hearing, attended by Fox News. He faces a nine-count federal indictment on computer hacking charges and, according to both Romanian and U.S. officials, is expected to be in the country for 18 months.

I wonder if Hillary is laughing when she’s alone.

Maybe with Hillary away, Bill figures he can get a crack at Huma Abedin.

Brace yourselves for the headline that Guccifer has been found mysteriously dead in his cell.

They’re trying to ensure that he is “under control” for the next couple of months. He’ll need to be available if a straw man is needed like that silly film they tried to blame Benghazi on.

Given that though, I’m pretty sure that he wasn’t the only one to hack into Clinton’s server.

I don’t know if you’re kidding or not, but the list of people who are supposed to die over the whore pig’s server is just like the New York city phone book, only much longer.

Haven’t seen a corpse yet. Hillary is neither inevitable (see the Kenyan/Hillary pres race from 7 years ago) nor invincible.
