They were personal emails and the IT agency she handed them over to deleted them, not her.
Oh, STOP IT!
The FBI declared in a public statement that they recovered more than 15,000 OFFICIAL e-mails / documents she had destroyed. They stated these more than 15,000 OFFICIAL documents were required to be turned over in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act and Federal Records Act.
1. These were official documents - evidence, not 'personal papers'.
2. The Destruction of Evidence = 'Obstruction'.
- Every single document destroyed = 1 count of Obstruction. That means they had more than 15,000 counts of 'Obstruction' against Hillary.
3. Over 30,000 counts of criminal non-compliance with laws. Each one of those documents = 1 criminal count of violating the Federal Records Act AND 1 count of violating the Freedom of Information Act. That's more than 30,000 criminal counts.
Add the 15,000+ to the 30,000+ for Obstruction, and the FBI publicly declared that just based on the documents they recovered that Hillary tried to destroy, they discovered / had over 45,000 criminal counts against her.
...and that doesn't even include the criminal counts of 'illegal possession of classified', 'illegal handling classified', 'illegal storage of classified', illegal destruction of classified', 'destruction of govt equipment', Espionage, 'Criminal Negligence', etc....
