FBI Director James Comey delivered a litany of damaging findings Monday from the bureau’s investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of personal email while serving as secretary of state. Not only did Clinton violate numerous security protocols, but many of the statements made by Clinton and her surrogates regarding her email have turned out to be untrue.
Nevertheless, Comey announced the FBI would not recommend filing criminal charges in the care, though he did allow that “consequences” may very well be appropriate in a different context. “To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences,” Comey said. “To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions.”
