Ok, fine...she broke the law. :roll: What exactly should be her punishment for:
1) having access to classified information.
2) for having classified information on her private email server.
3) for sending and receiving classified information (marked or unmarked; and I'm going to assume that she was well aware of the level of information she sent since to date we still don't have confirmation that she ever sent classified information to unauthorized personnel or that there was a successful breach to her server).
(Notice that all three of the above would have been in the normal day-to-day performance of her job as Secretary of State.)
Did she receive authorization outside of the State Department to have her own private server? No.
Did she turn over all work-related (official) documents to the proper authorities prior to leaving office? No
Did she follow established IT/records management protocols? No
Is any of this criminal?
Did any classified information remain in her possession?
Did any classified information fall into enemy hands?
Those would be the criminal actions. So, when that FBI report discovers that her skirting the rules allowed classified information to fall into enemy hands, let me know. Until then, we're done with this discussion.
Mishandling classified information, alone, is a crime.
