Safe given to lawyer among irregularities seen in review of Hillary Clinton emails
The Washington Times ^ | August 16, 2015 | John Solomon

Posted on 08/16/2015 7:36:57 PM PDT by jazusamo

When State Department officials first discovered that Hillary Rodham Clinton’s personal email account contained classified information, they did not seize the thumb drive containing her digitally archived inbox but rather provided her attorney a special safe to secure the device, according to interviews and documents.

The move allowed Mrs. Clinton’s attorney to keep the device for several additional weeks while State officials reviewed paper copies of the emails for possible classified data. Officials were unconcerned that the thumb drive remained out of their possession because preservation orders from courts and Congress would ensure that her attorney would not destroy the evidence. The digital archive was turned over to the FBI for examination this month.

Throughout the review process, career State officials who normally handle the release of data under the Freedom of Information Act ran into disagreements with attorneys about which information in the emails was classified, The Washington Times has learned.

The disagreements are part of a complex, and at times tense, process in which career lawyers and career FOIA officials, along with a dozen intelligence review analysts from different agencies, are trying to identify and protect intelligence information contained in Mrs. Clinton’s personal email account. State and FOIA lawyers normally work together on such requests, but this case has heightened tensions given Mrs. Clinton’s status as the Democratic presidential front-runner.

The ongoing process has already flagged 60 of Mrs. Clinton’s personal emails as containing classified information at the “confidential” or “secret” level, although a debate is raging over additional emails that the intelligence community and career State officials believe contain more sensitive top-secret data, officials confirmed.

Exactly the same way any one of us would be treated in the same situation, right?

I've known members of the military that would commit suicide if they accidentally did what Hillary laughs about, and thats not including Benghazi.

Imagine four years of this kind of this crap.

We'd all have to see hillary with bulged out eyes
We'd all have to see four more years of pant suits on the bit*h.
Four more years of lying.
Four more years of wondering who and how many will get Vince Fostered
Four more years of treason
Four more years with her meeting Ng Lap Seng prostitution boss
Four more years of hillary meeting with Johnny Chung and Charlie Trie again.
Four more years of hillary meeting with James and Mochtar Riady
........and on and on and on

“Here’s your secure safe. Now remember to lock Mrs. Clintons thumb drive in it every time after you delete classified emails from it”.

Oh I think once the emailer got back in the White House, we could not drag her out again.

HRC spent her 4 years as SOS and never came in contact with classified material./s

That is her way out of this. She can admit that she blew off doing any government work to concentrate on the Clinton Foundation and her secret deals with foreign heads of state.
