No, Hillary was not charged because there was no harm done..
Any number of hostile foreign actors had access to America's most sensitive secrets.
No one knows what harm was done, or could have been done.
Remember, the Great Plaxico Burress was sent upstate for possession of a weapon, after he accidentally shot himself in a leg. No one else was hurt, but he was still persecuted.
Wrong.
The Clinton email server was a Cisco VPN, which may be even more secure than the State Department server, which has so many more contractors given full access.
Nor was there any evidence of any sensitive secrets on it.
Part of classifies documents do not have to be sensitive.
And yes, the FBI does know if any harm could have been done, because they checked the server.

Accidental shooting[edit]
On November 28, 2008, Burress suffered an accidental, self-inflicted gunshot wound to his right thigh at the nightclub
LQ on Lexington Avenue in
New York City when his
Glock pistol in the pocket of his black-colored jeans began sliding down his leg; apparently in reaching for his gun, he inadvertently pressed the trigger, causing the gun to fire.
[27] The Manhattan District Attorney stated Burress was wearing jeans.
[28] The injury was not life-threatening and Burress was released from an area hospital the next afternoon.
[29] Two days later, Burress turned himself in to police to face charges of criminal possession of a handgun.
[30] It was later discovered that New York City police learned about the incident only after seeing it on television and were not called by
NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital as required by law. New York Mayor
Michael Bloomberg called the hospital actions an "outrage" and stated that they are a "chargeable offense". Bloomberg also urged that Burress be prosecuted to the fullest extent, saying that any punishment short of the minimum 3½ years for unlawful carrying of a handgun would be "a mockery of the law."
[31][32] Burress had an expired
concealed carry license from Florida, but no New York license.
On December 2, 2008, Burress posted bail of $100,000.
[33] Later in the day, Burress reported to Giants Stadium as per team policy for injured but active players and was told he would be suspended without pay
[34] for the remaining four games of the 2008 regular season for conduct detrimental to the team. In addition, the Giants placed Burress on their reserve/non-football injury list,
[35] meaning he was ineligible to return for the playoffs. Burress was also scheduled to receive $1 million from his signing bonus on December 10, 2008, initially withheld by the team.
[36] The
NFL Players Association filed a grievance, saying the team violated the collective bargaining agreement and challenging the suspension and fine received by Burress.
[37] A Special Master in arbitration subsequently ruled that the Giants must deliver the entire $1 million to Burress, as per the collective bargaining agreement. "To think that a player could carry a loaded gun into a nightclub, shoot himself and miss the rest of the season but get to keep his entire signing bonus illustrates one of the serious flaws in the current system," said Giants co-owner John Mara in a statement afterward.
[38]
On December 23, 2008, a search of Burress's New Jersey home by the
Totowa, New Jersey police, the
New York Police Department, and investigators from the
Manhattan District Attorney turned up a 9 mm handgun, a rifle, ammunition and the clothing believed to have been worn by Burress on the night of his accidental shooting.
[39] On June 12, 2009 Burress's attorney
Benjamin Brafman announced that he had been unable to reach a sentencing agreement.
[40]
Burress asked a Manhattan grand jury for sympathy during two hours of testimony on July 29, 2009.
[41] On Monday, August 3, 2009, prosecutors announced that Burress had been indicted
[42] by the grand jury on two felony counts of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, and a single count of reckless
endangerment in the second degree, a misdemeanor.
[43][44]
On August 20, 2009, Burress accepted a plea deal that would put him in prison for two years with an additional two years of supervised release.
[42] His sentencing was held on September 22, 2009. Burress hired a
prison consultant to advise him on what to expect while in prison.
[45] In January 2010, Burress applied for and was denied a work release from prison.
[46] On June 6, 2011, Burress was released from a protective custody unit of the
Oneida Correctional Facility in
Rome, New York, having served 20 months.

Sounds to me that NYC has bad gun laws.
But Burress committed 2 serious mistakes in that he had a round chambered and the safety was not on.
