Clinton aide key focus in FBI server investigation
2015-12-24
[Fox] More than 100 days after he invoked his Fifth Amendment right to avoid testifying before the House committee investigating the Benghazi terrorist attack, a key Hillary Clinton aide is at the center of the separate and ongoing investigation by the FBI into Clinton's use of a private unsecured server while she was secretary of state.

That former staffer, Bryan Pagliano, set up the controversial private email server in Clinton's home in Chappaqua, N.Y.

Pagliano is believed to be the only witness publicly identified during the politically charged hearings on Benghazi to invoke the Fifth Amendment.

He has not been charged with any crime, but the investigation continues into how Clinton used a private homebrew server which contained highly classified information while she was secretary of state.

As Fox News was first to report on Dec. 15, a review by the intelligence community reaffirmed that at least two emails were "top secret" when they hit Clinton's private server. The State Department had challenged the classification.

At the core of the separate FBI investigation is whether highly classified information was "grossly mishandled" by Clinton and her aides.

Pagliano worked for the Clinton campaign team and was their trusted IT specialist before he joined the State Department in May 2009.

#3  Isn't "key focus" a tautology?

#2  *shrug*. But everyone does it. Recently it was reported that Secretary of Defense Carter used private emails for work in the first few months of his tenure. But he copied everything to his work account so that it would be captured by the archives. link

#1  Um, yes the classified material was illegally and deliberately moved from TS and Secret servers to a civilian Unclassified machine...not "grossly mishandled.". It was a directed, calculated, deliberate, disciplined act over time that stupidly put our national intel assets at risk because Hillary Clinton was too lazy to go to a Scif. Laziness on Clinton's part and gutless ness on her staff's part. Laws exist to deter such stupid acts, and to punish those not deterred...now we will see if Lady Justice is truly blind or if that whole law and order thing is only meant to keep the peasants in line or if it meant for everyone...
