Judical Watch reported today that a federal judge ordered Friday that Clinton White House Email be searched related to the FBI Files Scandal.

Judge Lamberth ruled that the e-mail accounts of Ex-President William Jefferson Clinton and Former First Lady/Current U.S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and many other Clinton Gore officials be searched.

Court Overrules Bush Justice Department Efforts To Block Search

(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, reported today that a federal judge ordered Friday that Clinton White House email be searched for email related to the FBI files (Filegate) scandal. The decision, issued by The Honorable Royce C. Lamberth, ordered that the e-mail accounts of Hillary and Bill Clinton and many other Clinton-Gore White House officials be searched. Judge Lamberth overuled the Bush Justice Department’s efforts to block the search into the heretofore hidden Clinton e-mails.

Judicial Watch, which is prosecuting the Filegate $90 million class action lawsuit against Hillary Clinton and other Clinton officials on behalf of those whose FBI files were misused by the Clinton White House, first exposed the e-mail scandal in early 2000 through its client Sheryl Hall, a former top computer official at the Clinton White House, who testified that incriminating e-mail concerning virtually all the Clinton-Gore scandals had never been produced as they should have in response to document requests and subpoenas. Another Judicial Watch client, former White House computer contractor Betty Lambuth, also testified (along with others) that high-level White House officials threatened computer contractors to keep quiet about the hidden e-mail or face jail and firing. These threats occurred in the middle of the Lewinsky scandal. The scandal was the subject of an eight month evidentiary hearing that included the testimony of top Clinton White House officials. The court is in now considering whether to commence criminal contempt proceedings. A decision is expected in a few months.

As a result of Judicial Watch’s revelations, 1,844,242 e-mail from the Clinton-Gore White House were uncovered. This e-mail has never been fully searched in response to subpoenas and documents requests from Judicial Watch, Congress, and independent counsels. The e-mail were restored at a cost to taxpayers thus far of $12,066,346. The e-mail, which is in the custody of the National Archives, must now be searched pursuant to Friday’s court order.

“We look forward finally to obtaining this e-mail after years of stalling by both the Clinton and Bush Administrations. Hillary Clinton was the mastermind of Filegate. She will not escape justice,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.

If this is like the other Judicial Watch cases it isn't going anywhere.

GO LARRY GO!

Had to check the date to make sure this isn't something decided two years ago. Let's hope those e-mails are still around.

[ewing]

Are you kidding me! The personal emails in the National Archives..who knows what is in there, and the White House Clinton employees who testified MADE AN EFFORT not to turn them over!

[PISANO]

The wheels of justice grind slooooooooowly........by the time this is completed (if ever) all parties concerned will be in their respective graves. If ever there was an exercise in futility this is it. Not even the HISTORY books will mention this no matter what is ultimately discovered.

[ItisaReligionofPeace]

We shall see.

[ewing]

Gotta love the National Archives, they are still there..the question is did DemocRAT Archivist John Carlin (Former Governor of Kansas) lose the incriminating ones?

[ken5050]

Curious coincidence with Gore's announcement?

[Lee'sGhost]

Well, here's (slim) hope that the truth comes out, say, about October 2004. Just in time to slam Hitlary! for President into the ground.

[aristeides]

Also: even if Carlin tried to get rid of them, are they still stored somewhere?

[rintense]

This makes me laugh. As if any incriminating emails aren't already gone.

[yonif]

They are going to need a lot of bandwidth.

[Ms. AntiFeminazi]

I've decided that you really are a dork. lol.

[rs79bm]

If done right, this could be damaging. But, what types of emails/accounts/systems are being looked at? That is the question.

'bout time

[Moby Grape]

Not only will it be like all the other JW press-release propganda, that will go nowhere, but it will serve as the headline for the fund raising request I will get from them. I got THREE in one week recently....With JW, nothing ever actually goes to trial, nothing ever actually gets resolved, BUT, one thing you can depend on...those fund raising letters never stop.

Oh boy......hang on to your hat!
