Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., said “controversy” over not indicting Hillary Clinton months ago is driving the FBI’s decision to reopen its investigation into her use of a private server to handle confidential emails as secretary of state.
“With regard to [FBI Director James] Comey making a mistake, I think that he is very conscious of the controversy that has existed in the FBI and in the Justice Department. I’ve talked to FBI agents, former FBI agents, prosecutors, former prosecutors, who have scratched their heads and had been very concerned about how the investigation was conducted and the conclusion that was reached 3 1/2 months ago to not indict” Clinton, Goodlatte said on the Sunday news program “This Week” with George Stephanopoulos.
