'Huma Abedin, Other Clinton Aides May Have More to Fear From FBI Email Probe Than Hillary'
"The FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails will likely carry into the middle of the campaign season, and it’s her top aides who could be in the most trouble, former FBI and national security officials told The Hill.
Most of the emails marked classified on the former secretary of state’s private server were sent to her by top State Department aides, noted Bradley Moss, a lawyer who specializes in national security and protection of classified information.
Abedin, Mills and Sullivan were top Clinton aides at the State Department. Abedin and Sullivan now hold positions in Clinton’s presidential campaign.
More than 1,300 emails from Clinton’s private server were marked as classified, some at the highest level. Further, the FBI has reportedly expanded the investigation into how the State Department’s work intersected with the Clinton Foundation."
----------------------
2 plausible scenarios I see are:
1. Hillary's defense team uses Abedin, Moss, Sullivan, and anyone else they can as 'human shields', blaming them for all the criminal violations under the Espionage act. Huma and others in Hillary's staff are already on record as having described Hillary as being 'often confused' and 'technology challenged', so it would be believable that due to her 'confusion' and 'lack of technical proficiency' Hillary can not be held accountable for all the UN-/MIS-marked classified information being sent to her and being on her server, that her aides - vastly more knowledgeable regarding technology - are to blame. Their 'sacrifice' would be acceptable as long as she saves her own ass and political career.
2. Prosecution / Grand Jury (if it is ever allowed to go that far) could offer Moss, Abedin, Sullivan immunity to 'turn state's evidence' / testify against Hillary. Attempting to convince one or more of them that they are about to be betrayed / abandoned and left holding the bag - 'in much the same way Hillary abandoned Stevens and left him on his own in Benghazi' (they could argue/tell them). That might get at least one of them to agree to take the deal...and one is all they would need.
-----------------------
All that being said, I believe the DOJ / Obama will simply REFUSE to call for a Grand jury / will do what they need to do (or don't do) to make sure Hillary isn't touched.
