He basically said, she broke the law, but we’re not prosecuting.

I wonder...

Basically, yep...

Speaking strictly of the “facts” Comey laid out today,-—a very deliberate narrow road imo-— IIRC, one legal pundit remarked today that no official had ever been prosecuted on the “gross negligence” charge...only “intent.”

Thus Comey could “justly” defend his decree: “ Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. “

I.E., no clear precedent.

BTW: See Andy McCarthy and John Lott:
