18. I'm making a point. The OP is blaming her instead of the highly trained FBI agents who could

Oct 2016

have requested whatever devices they may have wanted to examine. All they had to do was ask for all devices and/or get a warrant and go get them. I am sure that if they had requested ALL devices, she would have given it to them. From everything I have seen she was already investigated, no wrongdoing was found, she, Hillary, and everyone were all cleared. Abedine was found to NOT have mishandled any classified documents. Now she is being attacked because she didn't give the FBI her home laptop? It was HER obligation to just think to volunteer that up? If they had wanted it, they should have REQUESTED it and any other potential devices involved in this.

So yes, this is smelling bad and I have sympathy for Huma being accused here of something she shouldn't be accused of.
