Hillary Clinton’s personal email server was “blank” and contained no data from her time as secretary of state when she handed over to the FBI on Wednesday.
Clinton tapped a Denver company to manage the system in June 2013. The company then reportedly shifted the emails onto a different server.Clinton left her State Department post in 2013 and the technology firm Platte River Networks assumed responsibility for the email network. The FBI visited Platte River’s offices last week as part of its investigation into the arrangement.
The firm transferred the server Clinton used to host government communications from her Chappaqua, New York, home to a data center in New Jersey.
The FBI confiscated the now-blank server Wednesday along with a thumb drive containing all of Clinton’s work-related emails.
The intelligence community inspector general informed Congress Tuesday it had uncovered evidence that at least two emails among a small sample contained classified intelligence “when originated,” despite Clinton insisting that none of the emails she sent or received were classified at the time.
The FBI’s decision to take control of the server coincided with the revelation that some of the emails on Clinton’s server should have been marked “top secret” — the highest level of classification in government.Send this to a friend
