Pence bashes Clinton for email on playing down 'American heroes' killed in Benghazi

Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence bashed Hillary Clinton and her team at a rally on Friday evening for how it sought to play down the stories of the Americans killed in the 2012 attack in Benghazi, as revealed by an email released this week.

“Her staff was preparing her for testimony, an opening statement before the Select Committee on Benghazi,” Pence told attendees at the Exeter, N.H., rally. “One of them actually mentioned in the email that she shouldn’t focus too much on the ‘four guys who were killed.’ Those were not four guys. Those were four American heroes.”
