How likely was that? I predicted a long time ago they would lose those exact files to a computer glitch.

Government email is not like a personal email account. By law, it needs to be backed up and archived.
Are they admitting here that her communications were done on her personal computer? (which would also be illegal)

As a former datamanagement professional I agree 100% with your assessment ,, there are literally hundreds of backups that have the data on them ,, full dumps of mail servers on both the sending and receiving ends and countless incremental backups...
I’d say it’s time to send all of them to jail,, including the mouthpiece that had the temerity to issue this statement.

Must have taken a lot of hard PROFILING
and meticulous EFFORT to scrub the
drives and servers clean.
THAT is obstruction of justice.

If you like your emails, you can keep your emails.
And if you don’t like your emails ... we will make them disappear.

Unless the hard disk is actually melted or very severely damaged (physically), data can be retrieved from it about 90% of the time.

The committee needs to start collecting names of all the IRS employees involved with this, so that when there is a Republican POTUS, and Republican appointed federal prosecutors, that there will be a strong effort to prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law, even if retired.

This suggests that they do not have a modern email archival system that ‘petrifies’ records as they are processed. For the organizations involved I would find that unimaginable.

The remake of the movie Sabrina had a great line. The Maude Larabee character incredulously says to her son David Larabee after another BS story-— "Do I look stupid? I never thought of myself as stupid, but maybe I am"
This administration is so full of BS and treating us the exact same way. They truly think we are a bunch of Maude Larabees.

Do a SWAT raid on the IRS and confiscate all data, at all levels.

These agencies send all data to central servers that are backup all over the place. There is no excuse. We need to lock down the server rooms.

Independent prosecutors Are you kidding?
Why? So that ths can disappear into that black hole of "I can't comment on an ongoing investigation ..."
Or maybe so that it can disappear for the next 3 yearws under a gag order an produce a book at the end that nobody will read because everyone has moved on to other scandals?
No. A Joint Select Committee just like Benghazi has that can be splashed across every camera in existence!
