Federal Judge Orders State Department to Search for Clinton’s Benghazi Emails

Nine months after Hillary Clinton was defeated by Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election, a federal judge is ordering the State Department to make another attempt in locating Clinton's missing emails about the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack.

U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta ruled Tuesday that the State Department did not do enough to "track down messages Clinton may have sent about the assault on the U.S. diplomatic compound on Sept. 11, 2012 — an attack that killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador to Libya," Politico reported:

"In response to Freedom of Information Act requests, State searched the roughly 30,000 messages Clinton turned over to her former agency at its request in December 2014 after officials searching for Benghazi-related records realized she had used a personal email account during her four-year tenure as secretary."

"State later searched tens of thousands of emails handed over to the agency by three former top aides to Clinton: Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills and Jake Sullivan. Finally, State searched a collection of emails the FBI assembled when it was investigating Clinton's use of the private account and server."

"In all, State found 348 Benghazi-related messages or documents that were sent to or from Clinton in a period of nearly five months after the attack."

Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, said the State Department's initial search was not good enough because it didn't search the email accounts of Clinton's top aides for relevant messages pertaining to Benghazi.

“Mehta, an appointee of former President Barack Obama”

It probably means they got the all clear and any incriminating evidence is either gone or replaced with exonerating evidence.

The Judge shoulda ordered the Rooskie Embassy to release the e-mails or pack up and leave.

Looking for these under an Alias would probably be helpful. The Clintons used these tricks since Bills terms. Since STATE can’t fully refuse to look it is a good probability. Trump can order Tillerson to oversee this event. Lisa Jackson, Loretta Lynch, Lois Lerner, Chelsea C., Huma, and Hillary. All used Alias often. Even the judges are now aware and can’t deep six the info.

Suddenly with Trump as POTUS the FBI finds emails on Clinton-Lynch that under Obama/Comey they said they never had,

It is Trump's State Department that is refusing to turn over the emails or even search for them.

During our Patriot Guard support for the Nicholas Spehar funeral, I spoke with Nick's Grandfather.

He was convinced that Obama sent them to be killed in some sort of sick payback for the death of OBL.

He seemed quite sincere and quite convinced (as well as heart-broken) of the truth of his beliefs.

That doesn’t surprise me. ‘Extortion 17’ is ANOTHER event that SHOULD be SERIOUSLY investigated.
