U.S. Senate investigators sought and received materials from the estate of Peter W. Smith, a longtime Republican operative who reportedly acknowledged shortly before his death that he spearheaded an effort to obtain missing Hillary Clinton emails from Russian hackers, two sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
Smith, a private-equity executive from Chicago who had been active in Republican politics, died at age 81 on May 14. Ten days earlier, he told a reporter from the Wall Street Journal that he had led a robust bid during the early months of the 2016 presidential contest to find what he thought were hacked copies of Clinton’s emails in hopes of using them against her during the campaign.

I’m trying to imagine an 81 year-old at death’s door doing a robust anything.
I don’t understand why they would be interested - they would only find more corruption and malfeasance by dhimmicrats there...
Squirrel!
D E S P E R A T I O N
It’s quite troubling to have employees of a newspaper that lies it’s ass off, used as reasons for an effort like this.
What, they only lie if it’s going into print?
This is a very low standard for a subpoena.
Known liars stating they were told...
Yeah, I’m buying that on face value. Let’s go raid some homes...
Process crime? Talking to Russia without approval?
He’s dead, Jim.
Not a single word coming from the ABC “News” division has any credibility whatsoever. Zero. Zip. Nada.
Is nothing sacred?
How dare he seek evidence of Hillary’s criminal activity!
Especially after the State Department, the Justice Daepartment, the FBI, the NSA and the CIA have worked so hard to cover up her misdeeds.
My (not very funny) joke is that everyone is looking for corruption and malfeasance from Republicans and all they are succeeding at is uncovering corruption and malfeasance by dhimmicrats.
Oppo research is a crime now.
International oppo research. For now.
Simple opposition research.n everyone does it. That’s where they are going with this.
Sad that an old man has to do what the FBI should have been doing.
Yeah, the ‘There There” is the DNC Media Comlex pushing garbage, to distract from Hillary’s Russia gate.
Did this 81 year old die alone by dropping a barbell on his throat or some such, shortly after posing a threat to the CLinton’s?
Audio or it never happened
Trump just said a few minutes ago that he knows which republican or Republicans were involved in the dossier collusion with the *itch from hell and swamprats! oh Nelly ...this chit is getting REAL!!! The fan is going to get hit hard!
Where did you read or see that?
Can probably go a bit further and say not a single word from any “News” division anywhere has any credibility whatsoever. So sad...
“acknowledged shortly before his death that he spearheaded an effort to obtain missing Hillary Clinton emails from Russian hackers, two sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.”
So, are they looking into what he found out with the emails?
