The Obama administration will soon find itself in court having to explain to federal judges why it never told anyone former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton used a secret email address, potentially spoiling dozens of open records requests, experts said Wednesday. And Mrs. Clinton could face up to three years in prison per message if she is found to have broken her word and handled classified information on the secret account, one open records expert told The Washington Times.
The legal challenges have already begun, with The Associated Press filing a federal lawsuit saying the State Department has foiled five years’ worth of requests for Mrs. Clinton’s emails, but never told them or the court that she kept her own server — meaning that her emails weren’t being searched. Meanwhile, the White House tried to keep Mrs. Clinton at arm’s length, insisting she alone can answer questions about what she did, and saying that none of Mr. Obama’s aides were involved in helping her decide which emails to turn over to the State Department and which to delete.
Mrs. Clinton’s office remained silent a day after the former first lady and potential 2016 presidential candidate held a press conference admitting she kept a private email server out of “convenience,” belatedly went through and found public records among her emails and then deleted nearly 32,000 emails she and her lawyers deemed private.

Hey Doug......Finally we may see justice for the Clintons. I know you have waiting for this day for a long time. Best of luck that this sticks.
To anyone that seriously harbors a hope of this ever happening:
Call me, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I'm selling at a deep, deep discount.
With an option on the Eiffel Tower.
The AP only filed suit to politically assassinate an insane non viable hag.
The AP fully intends to get behind a more palatable communist and wants a seat at the table.
She’s coated with too much media teflon. This may be close, but not the one that takes her down. I do hope that it’s the one that sets her up for the big fall.
I am not holding my breath. It is difficult to catch career criminals.
If she’s a private citizen on e-mail, then the Benghazi families should be able to sue her as a private citizen for wrongful death.
It is actually legal to give a quitclaim deed. All that does, however, is give any interest you have (which is none) without warranty.
She may spend her declining years in prison, but not for this.
Can I ask a stupid question?
Hillary said that she turned over all work related emails. She printed out 55,000 pages of email.
Then she said she deleted thousands of personal emails.
And she said that the server would remain in her private hands.
My stupid question is: if the server will remain in private hands, why did she and her people feel the need to delete thousands of personal emails? If the server is going to remain private, then why the need to spend all that time deleting strictly personal emails, when all of the government service related emails are in the possession of the state department????
All defendants will now execute the search warrants on their homes. No, your honor, I did not find any incriminating evidence.
How bout the Saudi’s instead of giving Hillary money
how bout a BURKA !! She sure could use one now, poor thing.
Megan Kelly show tonight outlines why Hillary may be guilty of a felony.
Ha, dream on.
This would mean that neither the President, nor his aides, nor anyone else in the Cabinet ever emailed Hillary Clinton in her official capacity. Because it would be quite obvious to them that her email address is not on the .gov server, and everyone got trained on this issue. Since it's highly unlikely that the State Dept. was running open loop for so long, some emails just had to be sent, received, and replied to. Those government employees who handled those emails had to be aware of the regulations - and so they are complicit. The independent prosecutor will have plenty of people to talk to.
Perhaps this issue may interfere with HRC's presidential ambitions.
BFS ...
Maybe she is not convinced that it will always remain in her hands.
15 years ago, at Spago in Beverly Hills, is the precusor to why she did this

Who helped her delete 30,000 emails? That’s some time consuming stuff unless you select “ delete all.” But, you can’t pick & choose when you do that.
The independent prosecutor will have plenty of people to talk to.
I wonder if they would really appoint a special prosecutor to look into this? After all, she’s Hillary. Hillary is special. Hillary is above us mere peons. Hillary is (fill in the blank).
The Clintons have survived so many scandals, I guess I will believe it when I see it, for this to be the beginning of the end of her presidential ambition.
