Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s mysterious email server has been in a private data center in New Jersey since 2013, that is, until the IT company the former secretary of state hired to maintain the hardware handed the “blank” device over to the FBI Wednesday.
Clinton’s attorney, David Kendall, informed the Department of State in a letter Wednesday that the company hired to manage and maintain the server, Denver-based Platte River Networks, was turning it over to the Department of Justice. Kendall also told State he handed over three thumb drives that contained Clinton’s emails.
The Washington Post reported the FBI recently contacted the company to obtain the server. That move followed reports that the Intelligence Community inspector general had discovered that at least two emails maintained in Clinton’s records contained “Top Secret” information.
The server was housed in the basement of Clinton’s Chappaqua, N.Y. home while she was secretary of state. After she left office, Clinton hired Platte River Networks, which moved the system from her home to a private data center in New Jersey.
Barbara Wells, an attorney for the company, told The Post agents picked the server up at around 4 p.m. Wednesday. But she said the hardware is “now blank” and no longer contains any useful information.
“The information had been migrated over to a different server for purposes of transition,” said Wells. The transfer was carried out in June 2013, she told The Post.
“To my knowledge the data on the old server is not available now on any servers or devices in Platte River Network’s control.”
It is unclear whether that means the data once maintained on Clinton’s server is gone altogether or whether there is another device that contains Clinton’s records. Wells did not respond to an email from The Daily Caller.
While Wells said the FBI assured Platte River Networks that it is not the target of any investigation, Republican lawmakers have questions for the company.
Senate Homeland Security Committee chairman Ron Johnson sent a letter to Platte River’s chairman Treve Suazo asking for information about the security of Clinton’s server.
“Given that the server was used to conduct official State Department business, questions have been raised regarding whether classified information was stored on the private server,” Johnson wrote in a letter obtained by McClatchy. He also sought to find out “if that data was secure, who had access to that material and whether all official documents were appropriately preserved.”
1: Who any of them are.
2: Who the hell Mr. Treve Suazo is
3: What if any security clearances they hold (doubtful)
4: Who had access to the TS data
5: Where that data is now.

Effing Outstanding!
Clear destruction of evidence and obstruction of justice.
New Jersey is blank and insecure?
Now that you mention it.....
(P.S.) i didn’t write the headline :)
Must be a Millennial Server?
On a more serious note, what if it was done this way, to allow for a compromised chain of custody, so that can be used as the excuse? Stranger tales have been weaved.
So will she or anyone associated with her be charged with perjury? Obstruction of justice? Isn’t that what we heard in Watergate? That it was the cover-up that was the true crime? Or do these rules only apply to Republicans and the little people?
“it depends on what the definition of ‘server’ is. you told us to hand over the server. you said nothing about the hard drive. that thing was shredded and melted into ball bearings months ago. you never told us anything about that”.
“The information had been migrated over to a different server for purposes of transition,” said Wells. The transfer was carried out in June 2013, she told The Post.
This means deleted emails cannot be retrieved because they were never on the new server.
Hillary’s not that smart. Bill might be, but not Hillary.
Not advocating violence of course, but do you remember the movie “The Hill,”
The Sergeant Major of a military prison said he was going to shoot the leaders of a prison riot.
The prisoners did not back down and some rioter shouted: “But how can you prove who the leaders are? Who will you shoot?”
The Sergeant Major’s answer: “Every Fifth Man!!!!”
End of riot.
My point simply; They’re all guilty as hell!
The smartest woman in the world who has no records of her dealings as SOS, the smartest woman in the world who cannot distinguish between top secret and non top secret e-mails, the smartest woman in the world who allows top secret info on an unsecure server wants to be president?
Good ole PRN. Take as needed.
Doing the work trash hauling mobsters won't touch!
It is blank and so is Hillary
