Near the beginning of a recent interview, an FBI investigator broached a topic with longtime Hillary Clinton aide Cheryl Mills that her lawyer and the Justice Department had agreed would be off limits, according to several people familiar with the matter.
Mills and her lawyer left the room though both returned a short time later and prosecutors were somewhat taken aback that their FBI colleague had ventured beyond what was anticipated, the people said.

(491 posts)She's got away making a lot of claims that are tenuous at best. And a lot of people have taken that as true.

(50,130 posts)But who knew that the FBI would agree to not ask certain things of the interviewees? I suppose that deal is made in order to get cooperation. No deal, then the interviewee must be subpoenaed as a hostile witness, in which case he/she pleads the fifth. Then the only option to get the information is to grant immunity.
Sure sounds as if she has a lot to be careful about, taking multiple breaks to discuss questions with her atty.

(6,474 posts)ie insufficient evidence for the Prosecution to meet its burden at trial-even insufficient to meet grand jury standard of "probable cause" for bringing an indictment

(12,704 posts)Their comment is simply an attempt to downplay the investigation.

(1,258 posts)Like would one group be concerned with FOIA and another with security negligence... and I'm not sure who would be in charge if it looks like Quid Pro Quo was going on with Clinton Foundations contributors and SOS policy?
Anybody know how the jurisdiction works?
