FBI says it has limited records on Clinton email case
By Josh Gerstein - 03/26/16 01:05 PM EDT
The FBI hasn't traded any correspondence with Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton or her representatives in the course of the law enforcement agency's active, ongoing investigation of the private email account and server she used as secretary of state, an FBI official told a federal court on Friday.
Responding to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit for FBI records about the probe, which is believed to have been underway for about nine months, FBI records official David Hardy said his agency had only a smattering of correspondence with the State Department about the matter and no records at all of authorizations to discuss the Clinton email inquiry with the media or other outside parties.
The suit, filed by Vice News reporter Jason Leopold, also sought copies of all emails and other files the FBI has managed to retrieve from Clinton's server and backup devices such as thumb drives. The FBI appeared to acknowledge that some such records exist but said releasing them at this time could impair the probe.
"Any records responsive (to that request) still cannot be disclosed without adversely affecting the pending investigation," Hardy said in a written declaration. The FBI official wrote that he was limited in what he could say publicly about the inquiry, but he added that the agency was submitting a classified declaration to U.S. District Court Judge Randolph Moss with more details about the probe.

I wish they would either drop it or issue charges ASAP. This could be the worst October surprise ever.
