In 2012, congressional investigators asked the State Department for a wide range of documents related to the attack on the United States diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. The department eventually responded, furnishing House committees with thousands of boxes of records and emails.
But it turns out that that was not everything.
The State Department had not searched the email account of former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton because she had maintained a private account, which shielded it from such searches, department officials acknowledged on Tuesday.
It was only last month that the House committee appointed to investigate Benghazi was provided with about 300 of Mrs. Clintons emails related to the attacks. That was shortly after Mrs. Clinton turned over, at the State Departments request, some 50,000 pages of government-related emails that she had kept on her private account.
It was one of several instances in which records requests sent to the State Department, which had no access to Mrs. Clintons emails, came up empty.
n 2013, Nitasha Tiku, then a reporter for Gawker, filed a Freedom of Information Act request, seeking all correspondence on Mrs. Clintons private email account between her and Sidney Blumenthal, a onetime staff member in the Clinton White House. Some of those emails had already spilled into public view and been reported in the news media. But the State Department told Gawker that it could find no records responsive to the request, Gawker reported.
Mrs. Clintons aides on Tuesday sought to play down the significance of her exclusive use of a personal email account for State Department business. But an examination of records requests sent to the department reveals how the practice protected a significant amount of her correspondence from the eyes of investigators and the public.

Private or public ... all her emails are out there somewhere.
Hackers no doubt have ALL of her emails. This is coming out now, just before she announces to run. I’m sure there are several emails that they are saving, to reveal at the right time, to sink her campaign.
BTTT
She’ll be heavy into the sauce tonight. Hide the ashtrays, Bill.
Hillaryous. Run Hillaryous, run.
That is fantastic.
.
Yeah, usually the New York Times defends these people to the bitter end but they really have it in for the Clintons. For a liberal politician to piss off a liberal fishwrap takes some doing.
The NY Times running this? This time she is landing under sniper fire.
Well, my friend, I think a wave is building that may cause significant grief to Satan’s Daughter.
You have to wonder who they have waiting in the wings to take her place? Elizabeth Warren?
Maybe RATS will come out of hiding to make the run. It could be Warren, but I think she would only run if she thinks Hillary is fatally wounded.
Here’s to Juanita Broaderrick finally getting the attention her story deserves.
Shell be heavy into the sauce tonight. Hide the ashtrays, Bill.
Bill stays away from the witch.
Jack Daniels is the only male in her company these days.
Out with Hillbillery
In with the Squaw Fauxchontas
If any of her private e-mails are redacted for national security reasons she needs to be charged. Having national security information on a private computer would be a big no-no.
