Quote:depending on the route that they choose to take in prosecution, the fact that she was using a home server for email purposes is in and of itself a violation of federal law for negligence regarding potentially sensitive material.  The wiping of the server which she used for work e-mail in and of itself is a violation of records keeping laws required for public officials.  Its not just about classified documents (although two IG's have already highlighted that the material they have refereed in the two TS emails was on its face based on codewords etc. highly classified information).  If she used the server for any purpose relating to her duties as secretary of state and had it wiped period that is a major violation of federal law that would bar her from ever holding public office.  

 

And we haven't even gotten to the negative inference that can be drawn from deleting e-mails when your husband is receiving millions of dollars in speaking fees and your foundation is receiving tens of millions of dollars in donations from companies and foreign entities that received favorable treatment from your state department.

 

Davidn Patraeus left his calendar at his desk  and he was convicted of a crime and his life was destroyed.  That's peanuts compared to having all the people's business routed through a server in some kids bathroom (I wish to whatever politically correct deity you wish to believe in that i was making that last part up.)
