Judge [Napolitano] Warns Hillary "Should Be Terrified" After Justice Grants Email-Staffer Immunity

The Justice Department has granted immunity to a former State Department staffer, who worked on Hillary Clinton’s private email server, as part of a criminal investigation into the possible mishandling of classified information, according to a senior law enforcement official.

Hitlery is sorry she spent more money on propaganda against the “video” for the Muslim world than she did on security for her server.

“Oh no. He’s been granted immunity. What that means is the justice department has the evidence they need for a Grand Jury and need collaboration. This guy was getting pressed and made a deal to give the required testimony for immunity.

“FoxBusiness reported today, that only a judge can grant immunity. This, according to FoxB, strongly implies that a Grand Jury has already been impaneled.

“I hope they did not do something stupid like granting him immunity before they know what he is going to say.”

It’s standard procedures to require the person being granted immunity offer a “proffer” which outlines the content of the testimony that will be provided. Such a “proffer” cannot be used against the individual. The immunity can be withdrawn should the individual renege on the “proffer”. IOW, the feds already know what the guy will say.

Thanks for those very informative links you posted in number 1.

Looking more and more like the s### is going to hit the fan, possibly by May, we may expect an indictment of somebody, maybe not of her royal highness. How many aids does she have that are willing to serve actual prison time to protect her sorry arse?

I hope they did not do something stupid like granting him immunity before they know what he is going to say.

If they didn’t, then all his has to say is “It’s all my fault” and he goes scott-free and so does everyone else.

The FBI has been taking sworn testimony for a long time now, and they know a great deal already. If this schmuck tried to take a fall and denied certain knowledge that contradicted others' testimony he would be facing prison for lying. I don't think he wants to do that.

Said staffer should remember to stay away from Fort Marcy Park.

[TruthWillWin]

Staffer should be terrified and stay the hell away from Ft Marcy Park!

[Ditter]

Goody goody!!! ; )

[Fightin Whitey]

trouble with the judge is he is never right

Troo dat.

Over the years I have found that his bold and lofty proclamations seldom comport with reality---lol!

[tdscpa]

His life insurance policy could be a good investment.

I wish I had your confidence. I don't trust the Dept. of Justice at all.

This morning they were reporting that there was no evidence that Hillary's private server had been hacked. Is this from Pagliano? If so, he's coming to her rescue. They can now claim no harm was done. I have already seen a "news" article in a newspaper state as if a fact that none of the classified documents sent was marked classified at the time--that is, taking the Clinton spin/lie and presenting it to the public as fact. After all, their job is to get Hillary elected.

We can expect to see the NYTimes carrying HRC’s water from here to eternity. However, when you think about the substance of the article, it elicits a big, “So what?” The low-level IT guy who installed HRC’s private server asserts that no foreign governments have hacked that server. Are we supposed to believe that foreign governments’ hacking abilities are so crude that they easily can be tracked by an IT guy maintaining the server that's been hacked? Besides, to prove espionage and mishandling of government correspondence, you don't need to prove damage — or even intent; negligence without obvious ensuing damage is necessary.

Don't lose heart. I agree that HRC won't serve time in prison, but there's a good chance this email issue will prevent her from becoming President, and that's not nothing. If she gets away with it completely, I shall throw in the towel on this country. But I am not going to do that until the game is over. If one year from now, HRC is President and the email investigations have been concluded with nothing more than a slap on the wrist to HRC or one of her cronies, I'll say that you were right all along.

I suspect the only way the people will ever get justice is if they administer it themselves.

Please let me know when and where the line forms

Guccifer hacked Sid Blumenthal, not HRC?

If they didn’t, then all his has to say is “It’s all my fault” and he goes scott-free and so does everyone else.

That's exactly what he's going to say. The fix is in, his family will be "taken care of" while he's in prison and the Democrat/Republican duopoly will continue on, manipulating the American Public into thinking that the rules apply to them too.....

Mark this post.

Correction: he ain’t going to prison! DUH!

[Mr. K]

You missed the entire point- he has been granted immunity.

He will not go to prison, even if he says “I did it and no one else was involved”

That is why I said that I hoped they know what he was planning one testifying BEFORE granting him immunity.

The do this with a “proffer”. They say “My client WILL SAY the follwoing things,,, a..b..c.. in exchange for immunity”

Then if he lies under oath immunity is revoked.

But if he just says “I want immunity to testify” but they dont know what he knows, then he just confesses to everythign - and he has immunity from it all.

[Mr. K]

that is what we HOPE has happened.
