Clintonâs FBI Interview What Was Cheryl Mills Doing There? | National Review
Finally, something else about those lawyers. I nearly fell out of my chair upon reading the very first paragraph of the notes of Clintonâs interview, which identifies the lawyers for Clinton who were permitted to be present for the interview. Among them is Cheryl Mills, Clintonâs longtime confidant and chief-of-staff at the State Department. Readers may recall that I suggested back in May that âthe fixâ was in in the investigation of the Clinton emails.
The reason was that the Justice Department was allowing Cheryl Mills â a witness, if not a subject, of the investigation â to invoke attorney-client privilege on behalf of Mrs. Clinton in order to thwart the FBIâs attempt to inquire into the procedure used to produce Clintonâs emails to the State Department. Mills was a participant in that procedure â and it is the procedure in which, we now know, well over 30,000 emails were attempted to be destroyed, including several thousand that contained government-related business.
When she worked for Clinton at State, Mills was not acting in the capacity of a lawyer â not for then-Secretary Clinton and not for the State Department. Moreover, as Clintonâs chief-of-staff, Mills was intimately involved in issues related to Clintonâs private email set up, the discussions about getting her a secure BlackBerry similar to President Obamaâs, and questions that were raised (including in FOIA requests) about Clintonâs communications.
That is to say, Mills was an actor in the facts that were under criminal investigation by the FBI. Put aside that she was not Mrs. Clintonâs lawyer while working for the State Department; as I explained in the May column, Mills, after leaving the State Department, was barred by ethical rules from acting as Mrs. Clintonâs lawyer âin connection with a matter in which the lawyer participated personally and substantially as a public officer or employee.â
