FBI Releases 189 More Pages of Hillary Clinton Email Probe Documents

ABC News

The FBI released nearly 200 more pages of documents late today from its investigation into Hillary Clinton‘s use of a private email server, offering further insight into how FBI officials decided that charges were not warranted for the former secretary of state and her aides.

FBI Director James Comey has said repeatedly that while his agency’s investigation found no evidence to indicate Clinton knew classified information was being sent over her home server, the FBI did conclude that Clinton was “extremely careless” in the handling of classified information.  

In fact, the documents released today show that during a trip to Russia while secretary of state, one of Clinton’s aides brought a pouch with Clinton’s classified briefing book into the hotel suite they were sharing. After Clinton and the aide left the suite, diplomatic security found a classified document had been left behind — and the pouch should not have been brought to the suite in first place, according to the FBI documents.

The 189 pages released today are comprised of summaries of FBI interviews with Clinton aides, State Department officials and other witnesses. They are peppered with redactions.

Many of the documents released today highlight how aides and officials knew they were discussing sensitive matters over email, but indicate they thought they were steering clear of classified information, according to what they told FBI agents.

For example, when Clinton adviser Jacob Sullivan was sent an email about what the FBI called “pending military activities” by North Korea, Sullivan inferred that “the person at [the State Department] who sent the email must have had reason to believe it could be sent on an unclassified system,” FBI agents summarized Sullivan as saying.

“Sullivan had no reason to believe any [State Department] employee he worked with ever intentionally mishandled classified information and did the best they could to make a sound judgment when handling classified information,” the FBI agents wrote.

Similarly, when asked about an email sent discussing a classified drone strike, Sullivan surmised the sender “may have sent this email on an unclassified system because the drone strike could have already hit the news wire.”

While reporting on a drone strike after the fact wouldn’t make the strike “less sensitive,” the email’s sender may not have viewed it that way, Sullivan told FBI agents, according to their summary.

  1. To bad nobody can launch a probe to discover the whereabouts of Hitlery’s missing conscience. Or ANY politicians conscience for that matter.
    I’ll bet those consciences are all safely stored and itemized inside Henry Kissinger’s wallet.

  2. Abbott & Costello’s ” Who is on First” dialogue makes more sense than Hillary and her Keystone Kop State Dept. staffers. Because I know how truly devious Hill & Bill are, this feigned stupidity must have been devised as a way to give away the ‘security farm’ without receiving the ‘Rosenberg’ consequence. They are unabashed Communists since college and hate America.

  3. Hillary Clinton is a scab. But so are her enablers and co-conspirators within the FBI and Comey, especially so. He is a low rent, sewer dweller, probably syphilis infected, third stage, brain dead, sycophant. A true parasite on the American tax payer.

  4. “FBI Director James Comey has said repeatedly that while his agency’s investigation found no evidence”

    That is not that strange if you read to the end of next page:

    But what does it matter at this point in time? 😉

    1. It matters….to the point where mass lawyer shootin takes place.
      Nothing like a good ol fashioned Michiganian Lawyer Hunt.

      ok, I totally made that last part up. But, I’m hoping it’ll catch on.
      It would be nice if everyone joined in for the first annual MLH event.
      (According to the MLH by-laws, the MLH is not solely bound to the environs of the State itself, but a seperate and free entity consisting of free individuals everywhere.)

      1. Ok….while I just now invented the Michiganian Lawyer Hunters Assoc. I may not be able to send anyone any identification signifying any sort of membership. I mean, I’m not charging fees or anything….Lawyers charge fees.
        I may be able to design some personalized I.D. cards….but you”ll all have to pay for the lamination yourselves.
        I can’t afford lamination. Laminating is expensive.
        I’ll print on the back from the Contract:
        Article 1, section 9, clause 8
        And Article 1, section 10, clause 1.
        It’s all nice an legal that way.

        1. lol
          did you read about the divorce lawyer that got his car bombed in Monroe Michigan about 3 years ago?

          the funny part is.. every client was a suspect and they couldnt ever figure out who did it because everyone wanted him dead

          yeah thats the job we all want , right? hated by the entire dam world ..
