Hacker who claims he breached Clinton server pleads guilty, strikes deal with feds
Fox News ^ | May 25, 2016 | By Catherine Herridge, Pamela K. Browne

The Romanian hacker who claimed he easily breached Hillary Clinton's email server pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court to two counts of computer hacking charges, as part of a deal with the Justice Department.

In exchange for a reduced sentence, Marcel Lehel Lazar – also known as Guccifer -- has agreed to cooperate with federal authorities in the future....

...An intelligence source told Fox News at the time of his extradition from Romania in late March -- which was unusual because his prison term there was not complete and no major financial fraud was alleged against U.S. victims -- that it was not a "coincidence" and was connected to the FBI email probe.

The same source said Guccifer’s breach of Clinton aide Sidney Blumenthal’s account – which was connected to his indictment in the U.S., and which first exposed the .Clintonemail account -- put national defense information at risk.

“[Hillary Clinton’s] gross negligence allowed this material to get out to an adversary,” the source said. “Through her communications with Blumenthal, [Clinton] contributed exposure and risk.”

I was surprised to notice that this important article had not been posted on FR.

The hacker known as "Guccifer" is cooperating with the FBI and should be of much help in tracing the security exposures of Hillary's appalling, illegal email system.

Putin could do the world a great service by releasing his copies of Mrs. Bill Clinton’s secret server emails. He would give us the unredacted originals, as opposed to the scrubbed versions the Justice Dept. has released.

Part of the deal is to deny he hacked Hillary

Guccifer is going to wind up having hung himself in his prison cell.

So sad we couldn’t learn more from him. Oh well, the media has confirmed - everyone said he was a loner, very depressed. He was very bright, but had a history of mental illness....

Putin doesn’t need to do anything. I bet that the only reason Hillary hasn’t been officially cleared by the Obama DOJ is that these e-mails can be released afterwards making them all look like fools.

Putin just needs to let everyone know that he has the e-mails. The Russian state media has already done that.

“Putin could do the world a great service by releasing his copies of Mrs. Bill Clinton’s secret server emails”.

Keep an eye on Pravda. You would know about it far sooner.

In fact, the Russians may be evan more worried about her.

“The fact that a real monster can take office as US president is a problem for the whole world. The monster is a woman of extremely dubious moralities, who does not shun plotting mass crimes, murders and cooperation with international terrorists, who then tells reckless lies and avoids responsibility for what she has done. What future will the world have with such a monster as US president?

Ironic how things happen, in this case, it’s (pro-death penalty, for the unborn) Hillary Clinton who gets hacked. Somebody should ask her how it feels to be the one who gets hacked, for a change.

Welcome to 2016, where Pravda actually prints the truth on occasion.

Putin has Hillary’s emails because they had Guccifer under surveillance because he was snooping around the Russian servers.

When they discovered HE was saving her emails they saved them too.

So she may have wiped her Az but they both caught he in the act

Actually part of the deal is to explain how easy it was to get into her very unsecured server. To show how careless and negligent she was with top secret materials.
