You would have to have administrator privileges since some of this was higher than plain TS. You’d cut-and-paste....save to some disk....then go to another system and paste it onto a system. All of this...would have gone against normal training that you get and violate some general rules. The guy (note, Hillary was not the cut-and-paste person)...will be dragged to some court session eventually. My humble guess is that they will take away the security clearance, and that wraps up his or her career.

In my old agency, they had this deal where if you screwed up like this....there was a cost to sanitizing the servers, which this would add up to $10k. A review would occur later, and they’d assess the cost. That was typically a matter of just one stupid message and one server.

At a site I'm familiar with "trusted downloads" require signatures on forms approving the movement of information from a classified system to unclass. This has to occur for every single instance. There are automated logs and records of every download and who performed it. There are no blanket approvals. Want to move a file - get signatures and approvals and reviews of the data by two people to ensure it is clear. Want to move another file after lunch? Get signatures and approvals and reviews of the data by two people... It is a pain in the backside - by design - because you don't want people doing this very often. Every time is a risk that the reviewers will miss something.

Clinton and her staff had to make a conscious effort at moving classified off to an unclass system. This is criminal, they should all be prosecuted and imprisoned.

Really simple get one of the classified documents from the sender's sent box and compare it to the document on Hillary's private server. The FBI has the real emails now (not print outs) so the metadata should be interesting. .

Whoever it was, he or she will probably take the rap in order to spare Hilary. A guilty plea will result in probation, a la Petraeus. Then once Hilary is in the WH, a pardon or commutation will be issued.

In other words, nothing to see here. Move along.
