In reply to the discussion: FBI Said to Prepare to Interview Clinton Aides About E-Mai [View all]Jarqui
(10,131 posts)27. It will be interesting as to who is willing to talk with them without immunity.
That IT guy's lawyer insisted on it for legal reasons under criminal law.
After all this time, the FBI, etc cut a deal with him for a reason. They must be going for bigger fish.
If there was no criminal or national security concern here, the FBI would have been gone long ago. It's hard for me to believe they would have hundreds of FBI and Intelligence Community agents and two Inspector Generals work on this for months when absolutely no crime was broken while national security was not at risk. The FBI have been involved for months for a serious reason.
If you get a bunch of them pleading the 5th, it would not surprise me while the stench of this goes way up.
