1. Hillary set up a private email server with certain knowledge that she would be receiving (at the very least) classified data on this server.
2. She received at least 2 Top Secret/SCI emails on this server, apparently without appropriate markings. These emails contained Top Secret/SCI data that was classified at that time.
3. At no time did she did not report, to an appropriate security officer, the fact that these emails were on her server.
4. She continued to operate this server without notifying an appropriate security officer.
The following claims are not relevant.
1. She didn't know the data was classified.
2. The emails were not properly marked.
3. She didn't send the data to anyone else.
If the claims by the Inspector General are correct, she is guilty of a serious crime, and that's for only 2 emails.
Toast. There are still enough nonpartisan, unfirable civil servants in the government who will not stand for this, and I suspect Obama will not lift a finger (OK, maybe one).
I believe that she actually KNOWS this. She’d probably quit right now, except that it would be a tacit admission of guilt. She’s got to either weather this (darned unlikely) win or lose, or go down in total disgrace (at the least).
Every time I’ve departed a command where I had TS/SCI or higher clearance, I’ve had to ‘brief out’. Where’s Hillary’s signed documents when she left State?
“...you use that term alot....security officer... I don’t think it means what you think it means...”
This is just an observation, but “security” as defined by any governmental agency (DoD, military components, even the federal government...well maybe not them) usually means protecting against information getting out to the wrong people. To the coat tailed, lace pantied, “compromise is in the charter,” foppish diplo-dunks at state, “security” is anything that protects state. More to the point, protects those same coat tailed, lace pantied.....etc. diplo-dunks. Could be wrong, but wagons have been circled, enough time has passed for all stories to match, and there is not enough integrity in government at any level to push prosecution to where it needs to go.
Unless Inyego Montoya decides to get involved.

The penalty, if convicted, is 20-50 years in a Federal Penitentiary.
For each offense.
If it is found that she knowingly sent that information to a Foreign National, ESPECIALLY and Agent of a foreign government, the maximum penalty is Death.
It was TS/SCI.
Even an email statement to a foreign dignitary that says something like: "Bullsh!t Yuri, we have pictures that clearly show those crates were of VX gas", it's espionage.
