More importantly though, broken chain of custody means that anything they found that should have been prosecuted can now absolutely not be....
A chain of custody "failure" is an extremely convenient and CHEAP way to null out potential evidence against you!
Literally all it takes is for some documentation to be "lost" and you have just defused the potential bomb!
The servers were never lost!
This was a smokescreen.

Weird that none of the trump haters has weighed in on this.
I mean they keep telling us how awesome and professional the fbi is, so you think they would have a comment
Oh well, I guess same as it ever was; ignore it and then act like it never happened while they continue to attack trump

What makes you so sure the documents released by the Trump Department of Justice are genuine? After all, the FBI is supposedly corrupt. Perhaps corrupt FBI agents are serving Trump's political interests now. Once you go down that rabbit hole....
Based on this comment, I assume that if these documents are proven to be real, then you do have a problem with what the fbi did.

Do you believe the FBI is corrupt? If you do, why do you believe these "new" documents? I have not read them nor seen them verified, so I have no opinion. You, however, seem to believe the FBI is both hopelessly corrupt and yet believe what they say if it makes Clinton look bad.

If you read the actual document, you will see that the actual server was not missing for five weeks, the paperwork was. That's not corruption, that's human error.

U.S. Department of Justice has given a Platte River Networks employee immunity in his role for deleting Hillary Clinton’s e-mails last year.
Citing an unnamed law enforcement official and others briefed on the investigation, The Times named Paul Combetta as the Platte River computer specialist who used the software program BleachBit to delete the messages and later told the FBI that he realized he shouldn’t have.
Officials from the Justice Department and Platte River declined to comment on Friday.

Yes the chain of custody was lost.
That means the fbi can not prove who had access to the server for 5 weeks
That means that it would not be able to be used as evidence, because the defense would say that it could have been tampered with in those 5 weeks

So the paperwork was missing but the actual chain of custody was maintained?
