  • Dem Congressman Demands Judge Go Through Hillary’s Deleted Emails

    06.04.2015 | News | |

    Hillary Clinton’s deleted government emails from her personal server is the herpes version of a cyber scandal that just won’t go away.

    And now Massachusetts Democratic Congressman Michael Capuano is asking that a federal judge order an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private server.

    In a radio interview Tuesday, Mike Capuano said he had “concerns” about Hillary Clinton’s decision to operate outside of the State Department’s security apparatus and use her personal email address while she served as Obama’s secretary of state.

    “I have some concerns,” Capuano told Boston Herald Radio.

    “We are talking about national issues and I think there is a fair question when you used the bulk of your time on a private email server to have some neutral observer—not the U.S. Congress that’s clearly going after a political witch hunt here—but I don’t know some individual judge that everyone trusts or something go through them and make a determination [as] to what is and what is not appropriately subject to public scrutiny,” Capuano said.

    Capuano’s comments came the same week that Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) grilled top Freedom of Information Act officers from five government agencies at a House Oversight Committee hearing.

    “I’m not interested in her personal life or the life between her and her husband, but that was her choice,” Capuano added.

    “I use my campaign email for campaign related purposes. First of all the law requires it, and second of all it’s appropriate,” Capuano said. “I know that my email, I actually don’t know how public it is but I assume it is and therefore my email is used for me and my staff and that’s really about it. As I have two offices obviously and I have to keep in communication with everybody. And that’s really about it. At some point if somebody needed to see what I was doing officially for some sort of legal requirement, it’s all in one place.”
