THAT'S THE POINT, ACE. If you were found with that laptop with the same stuff about you and everything else that was on it from and about foreign governments, you would be in federal prison. The FBI never even entered it as evidence.
But then, if you had a private government server in your closet, was using commercial cellphones with top secret stuff being transmitted in foreign countries against all national security regulations, was taking big "contributions" to your private foundation front then gave big rewards to those foreign donors and were destroying 30,000 government files when you heard your server might be taken, you'd be where?
In federal prison.
Yet the FBI not only did nothing but helped destroy some of the evidence.
