Did Clinton and Her Cronies Destroy Email Server Evidence?
House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah (C, 78%), has requested an investigation into new evidence that suggests Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton or her employees obstructed justice by destroying evidence related to Clinton’s private email server.
In a letter to Judge Channing D. Phillips, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Chaffetz described how the FBI’s files “reveal evidence that an engineer at Platte River Networks, the company responsible for maintaining the Secretary’s third personal email server, deleted Secretary Clinton’s email archives in March of 2015, despite knowing they were subject to preservation orders and a congressional subpoena.” Further, information from those files “raises questions about Secretary Clinton’s involvement.”
Chaffetz called for an investigation to determine if Clinton or her employees/contractors “violated statutes that prohibit destruction of records, obstruction of congressional inquiries, and concealment or cover up of evidence material to a congressional investigation.”
Additionally, Chaffetz sent a letter to Platte River Networks, requesting information related to potential evidence destruction.
“In brief, the summaries of the FBI’s interviews with a PRN engineer show that within days of a conference call with Secretary Clinton’s lawyers, the engineer deleted archives of Secretary Clinton’s emails, despite knowing those records were covered by preservation orders and a subpoena from Congress.
[…]
The sequence of events leading up to the destruction of Secretary Clinton’s emails… raises questions about whether Secretary Clinton, acting through her attorneys, instructed PRN to destroy records relevant to the then-ongoing congressional investigations.”
House Republicans have also requested that U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch investigate Clinton for perjury, citing discrepancies between Clinton’s sworn testimony before Congress in 2015 and the conclusions reached by the FBI’s investigation into Clinton’s private server released in July.
Further, a recent FBI report indicated that Clinton used 13 different Blackberry devices and had State Department employees smash some with hammers, which isn’t suspicious in the least.
These allegations against Clinton follow what was an objectively terrible week for the Clinton campaign. With Republican candidate for president Donald Trump gaining a small lead in the latest CNN/ORC poll as of Tuesday, could Hillary Clinton’s corruption finally be catching up to her?
