FBI releases 100 new pages from Clinton case
The Hill ^ | 10/17/16 | Julian Hattem

Posted on 10/17/2016 7:19:04 AM PDT by Enlightened1

The FBI on Monday released roughly 100 new pages of material from its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email system and the possibility that classified information may have been mishandled.

The notes and interview summaries are likely to shed new light on the bureau’s year-long investigation into Clinton and her allies, which has come under fire from congressional Republicans.

Despite claiming that the former secretary of State and her aides had been “extremely careless,” FBI Director James Comey has insisted that his investigators did not find evidence to support a criminal charge against the Democratic presidential nominee. The Justice Department ultimately decided not to press charges over the matter.

However, Republicans have refused to accept the department’s conclusion, and have accused officials, including Comey, of creating a double standard for Clinton.

Responding to the congressional pressure, the FBI has previously released some of the notes from its investigation, including a summary of Clinton’s interview with federal officials.

The new release on Monday contains additional material.

Lawmakers and aides from the House Oversight and Intelligence Committees, speaking with Fox News, have claimed that the documents reveal evidence of a criminal “quid pro quo” between high-ranking State Department official Patrick Kennedy and the FBI.

House Republicans have repeatedly pressed the Justice Department about its decision not to file charges in the Clinton case, and the new release of material might lead to additional public scolding.

Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) told the news outlet that there could be at least “four hearings” on the material later this fall.

The FB”I” was caught changing classifications
and then letting treason go
WHILE permitting terrorists to enter the USA without
passport - even after notice.

An average llama is more trustworthy and reliable
and honest and patriotic.

We’ve been down this road before. They only release stuff they think will get the hounds off them. We need involuntary releases to the stuff they wish to hide.

Despite claiming that the former secretary of State and her aides had been “extremely careless,” FBI Director James Comey

As one of Shrillary's "Deplorables" I still do not understand the legal difference between “extremely careless,” and “grossly negligent,” as the Espionage Law reads??? Are there any criminal attorneys on FR that can explain that to us Deplorables?

From Comey.....2. "Our investigation looked at whether there is evidence that classified information was improperly stored or transmitted on that personal system in violation of a federal statute that makes it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute, making it a misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from appropriate systems or storage facilities."
