If he has immunity WHY would he be interested in taking the 5th..?
I don’t get it.
He has immunity for the FBI criminal case...it does not apply to this civil case.
“The Bill Clinton appointee laid out a narrow set of parameters for discovery. It had to focus on the handling of Freedom of Information Act requests for Clinton and her aide Huma Abedin. Questions about the creation of Clinton’s private email server are also allowed, Sullivan ruled.”
Pagliano can take the fifth, and he will; that will open the door for the judge to allow Clinton to be deposed.

Simple. The deposition he took the 5th in is a CIVIL deposition. He has Federal immunity. If he slips up and says something different in a sworn civil testimony versus what he tells the Feds, they cancel the agreement. A person with criminal immunity should only talk to those who control his immunity. Makes legal sense. People get confused sometimes under civil cross examination and it’s easy to say something you don’t mean or is taken out of context.
