Right, I know that the FBI makes the case, but any U.S. attorney? One who has jurisdiction in D.C.? One who has jurisdiction where her private server was located? Just trying to piece this together.

With all the lawyers in DC, surely someone is in charge of Top Secret Bathroom Security Laws.

The general rule is a defendant can be prosecuted either where she lives or where she committed the crime. In this case the location of the crime could be deemed wherever she connected to the server from while transmitting classified information (will someone more familiar with Federal criminal procedure please join with more specific info).
