If true, the fact that they found any work related emails is a problem for Hillary. She told everyone that what was deleted was personal, private email.

Thank you. That’s the bottom line here as it stands now.
Not so. The week before last, the Justice Department argued in court, and persuasively so, that as Secretary, Hillary Clinton had the full legal authority to determine what was work related and what was not.
The beginning of the end of this matter has arrived. The GOPe will manage to turn this “scandal” into blowback and Hillary’s poll numbers will rebound. The GOPe has never been able to win against the Clintons and it never will.
Recall that Hillary printed out 30,000 e-mails that she considered "work-related". Then, she deleted everything on the server -- including a reported 30,000 e-mails she considered "personal".
Separately, the electronic copies of the e-mails which have been seen so far have come off a thumb drive that was in the possession of Hillary's attorney -- and purportedly represented the 30,000 work-related e-mails which had been printed out.
Thus, what the FBI may have pulled from the server could be duplicates of what's on the thumb drive -- not necessarily fresh material.
She deleted EVERYTHING and claimed that the hardcopy paper print outs (none of which were marked CLASSIFIED) were all of the work related emails.
If anything work related is recovered that is not already in the hardcopies, then she is guilty of not complying with records retention laws.
