But she was the custodian of the original government records. If the server is empty, she has destroyed the originals, and is representing the copies as equivalent and complete.

There is always some loophole some legal technicality.

Old Scottish Law helps as well.

Clinton isn’t liable for any of her sins except to God. She belongs to one of the oldest, most respected crime families in America, the democratic party.

Alan is wrong on this one. One of the duties of a senior leader (and, last I checked, a Cabinet-level Secretary is one) include ensuring security of documents that flow in and out of her area. Not that anything will happen to her though. She could help ISIS behead Christian babies on prime-time live TV and her adoring acolytes would cheer her “boldness.”

Makes total sense to me.

Obviously Hillary wanted to hide probably communications and the possible fact that she could have been still collection Foundation money and doing business at a time when she should have avoided all contact.

I’ll bet with the polls showing Hillarys! low standing voters, I’ll bet she’s starting to wonder if she should have just slithered off into the quiet of the private life instead of trying for president.

Holy crap. Dershowitz sure didn’t want that plane door kicked open when he had his Weiner in a teener, now, did he?

So if you take the cover sheet off a classified report, you can walk it around town ? Fool. The law is not about the classification label. The law is about the classified data.

Absolutely.

It does not have to be marked Top Secret or confidentiaW

They did this with Petraeus, and there are much older laws that apply than 2014. See how they try to create a new narrative for Hillary - as if we are three year olds...”Oh, it wasn’t marked secret - so it cannot be her fault!” Sorry, she put top secret information in an unsecured place and she must suffer the consequences like David Petraeus did. She is the Secy of State - top 3 target for foreign intelligence services - are you effin kidding me!

This goes back to the billionaire-jet-sex party with Bill Clinton. Dersh is trying to help out somehow, maybe Bill has some pictures.

Since the Obama Administration is releasing this info on Hillary, pretty soon Bill will unload his dirty wares on the Obama’s. This war may get very ugly. Where’s the popcorn.

He is correct.

If the stuff wasn't labeled at the time, then she and her underlings skate.

But apparently, some of the content was TK (Talent Keyhole), meaning it came from the Puzzle Palace, not the State Department. It's hard to believe that kind of stuff arrived at State unlabeled. That means somebody at the State Department or Clinton herself stripped off the labels.

I can imagine, Hillary, after reading that book on email security, instructed her underlings to send her everything but not to send her anything with classification labels. As Judge Napolitano pointed out, that would be a criminal conspiracy.

None of the possible explanations exonerate her.

This fat lying slug hillary needs to be locked up in prison with that lesbian ellen as her cellmate. Good Riddance.

I guess he's an expert on security clearances. Pffffffft...

I was a low-level contractor who never handled anything classified, but I did get a "Secret" clearance, and even I know that what she did was absurdly illegal.

Dershowitz is such a tool.

How could a lowly peasant such as the UNITED STATES SECRETARY OF STATE have any idea that a private server is illegal let alone understand classification of documents.

IT’S PREPOSTEROUS! /s

Her acceptance of SOS is her undoing. Give the lying bitch a foot of rope she may manage. Give the lying bitch 1000' of rope and she is toast.
