FBI found extensive evidence Hillary emails violated federal records laws
"Each email transmission of a government document that was not preserved or turned over to the State Department from Mrs. Clinton's tenure could theoretically be considered a violation of the Federal Records Act, the main law governing preservation of government records and data.
Other federal laws make it a felony to intentionally conceal, remove or destroy federal records as defined under the act, punishable with a fine and imprisonment of up to three years.
A single conviction also carries a devastating impact for anyone looking to work again in government because the law declares that any violator "shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States."
The FBI "indirectly documented hundreds, and likely thousands, of violations of the Records Act," one source with direct knowledge of the FBI's investigation told Circa.
Using forensics, the FBI recovered from computer drives and other witnesses about 17,500 emails from Mrs. Clinton's private account that dealt with government business, most that had not been turned over by her or her aides, the sources said.
Some of the emails recovered by agents were germane to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests from the public and congressional investigations and had not yet been produced, the sources said."
FBI Director Comey acted to protect Hillary Clinton from Prosecution by declaring HE thought there was no evidence of criminal intent, that she was too stupid to know she was breaking the law.
1. Ignorance of the Law is NOT an acceptable defense for breaking laws. Also, the government has numerous documents signed by Hillary Clinton, after having received training, declaring she was FULLY aware of all laws, rules, and regulations regarding the handling of classified information, destroying Comey's claim that she did not know the laws / had no idea she was breaking the law.
2. Comey's claim that there was no evidence to support 'Intent'. This was quickly discredited by numerous legal experts across the country:
"There are a lot of intentional acts, including the setting up of the private email server, that probably could go to a question of was this intentional and was this violation of both the records act and the handling of classified material."
-- Matt Whitaker, who served as U.S. Attorney for Iowa under President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama
"Whitaker said he believes a special prosecutor should be appointed to review the Records Act questions because "in this political silly season it appears that the FBI and especially the Department of Justice doesn't have the stomach to pursue the potential charges that emanate from this behavior."
"After her private email system was discovered, Mrs. Clinton eventually turned over 55,000 pages from about 30,000 emails involving State Department work.
But FBI officials recovered about 15,000 additional emails on her private account that involved government business by sweeping her old devices and servers or scouring the government emails of other people she corresponded with.
It was not until AFTER she was caught violating the FOIA and Federal Records Act and the documents found that Hillary handed them over.
The evidence supporting the FACT that Hillary Clinton violated NUMEROUS laws, to include Obstruction of Justice (like Lynch), is UN-DENIABLE.
The evidence that the US Govt (Obama administration and current Justice Department) is deliberately continuing to cover this historic criminal scandal - the government declaring to the American people that the crime committed by a potential (could have been) President of the United States was none of their business / nothing for them to be concerned about - should extremely concern the American people.
Here’s why the FBI refused to release Hillary Clinton files to the public
This type of secrecy, selective judicial action, and protecting of high-ranking political party leaders, placing them above the Rule of law, should NOT be tolerated.
