 And thus, the worry. SOS Clinton, when she left office, failed to turn over official records of the United States for almost 2 years. We know this because she now has, belatedly, turned over 55,000 pages of records to the State Department. Assume that the failure to turn over the documents was an accident -- doesn't matter, per the regs, she is still subject to criminal prosecution, and 18 USC 641 is broad enough to encompass even accidental retention. Worse still, it was unlawful for her to remove the documents from the state department or to "conceal" them on her server and not turn them over. She could be arrested, forfeit office, and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States....forever.*
| Oh the sweet irony: RONALD D. ROTUNDA, WSJ, 16 March 2015 - "Title 18 USC 1519 which includes the deletion or destruction of only one email to block a Federal investigation could be punishable by up to 20 years in Federal Prison. The bar on prosecuting this offense is much less than Title 18 USC 2071 (b) and much easier to Prosecute. This law was enacted in 2002 as part of the Sarbanes -Oxley act dealing with obstruction of Justice in Federal Investigations with then Hillary Clinton supporting this bill in the US Senate." |
If Champ really wants to put a stick into Hillary's wheelchair spokes he could do something really simple, completely legal, and totally devious:
pardon her.
It's his right under the Constitution. It would spare her (and the country) all the legal wrangling and it would destroy her presidential campaign, thus opening the door to Fauxcahontas and others. How enjoyable it would be... |
