Two different sources have stated that these emails do not involve Hillary Clinton.
AP and NYT, linked several times in the thread.
Subseuqent sources have suggested that these emails may be duplicates that the FBI has already reviewed.

Do did Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield ...
Powell and Rice used private email.
Representatives Chaffetz and Gowdy both use non-government email accounts ...
But no ... this is not political at all.
Riiight.

"Subsequent sources have suggested that these emails may be duplicates...".
"Suggested"?--"May be"?
Suggests they don't really know...but are speculating.
BTW: Were these sources 'unnamed sources' ?
Either way...we'll see. Looks like Hillary has nothing to worry about, if true...Plenty to worry about if it's just spin.

In your opinion.
You're not an attorney, nor a judge nor a jury in the mattter.
You are reading the law and applying it as it suits your beliefs.
Director Comey was quite clear in July on this point.

793(f) is the relevant law.
18 USC 793(f)
(f) Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross negligencepermits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of its trust, or lost, or stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, and fails to make prompt report of such loss, theft, abstraction, or destruction to his superior officer—
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.
intent is NOT a requirement under the statute.
And what's the precedence of jurisprudence in the last 99 years on this issue.
I.e., what and how have US Courts actually ruled (or what cases have actually been brought)?
Why is that always left out of these analyses?

First thing you've said in a while that I agree with Rick.
I believe the focus here will be on Huma.
If she sent confidential info to her husband, that is indeed going to be actionable in court.

2004 was a whole different digital environment than 2013. Email wasn't even a thing everybody used. But, if the Bush administration did anything illegal, they need to be held accountable, too.
But, I don't think they set up a private server connected to their personal "business/charitable/racket" ventures and used that for government business. I could be wrong, however.

Gryph I don't think she'd have to 'send' it to be in trouble. The fact that he had access to the laptop is enough, amiright? It was a shared computer.

This is an interesting document.
It is a State Department memo regarding the Senior Officials' Records Management Responsibilities.
It is clarifying a policy that has been in place since 2009, with some updates marked in the years since then.
www.archives.gov...
Email record storage policy is covered in detail.
The Secretary of State is specifically listed under the positions that the policy applies to.

If there was no security in place to protect the information, I think you're absolutely correct.
Shared computer? I hadn't picked up on that ... did you have a good link to that info? I'd love to get caught up on that.

Felony convictions under 793 F
United States v. Rickie L. Roller
United States v. Arthur E. Gonzalez
Now you tell me how many people who were charged under 793 F plead guilty. I ask because the the stats dont take that into account. It solely focuses on prosecutions where a person plead not guilty and was convicted.

No it doesn't mean she broke the law.
WHy do you quote what Comey said in one sentence and ignore it in the next.
No one has been tried under those statutes in a century WITHOUT INTENT TO DISSTRIBUTE.
You believe she broke the law. I understand that. That is your opinion, not the fact.
USMJ is a different code of law.
