Obama’s State Dept Asked Hillary’s Lawyer To Delete Copies Of Classified Benghazi Emails Months Ago
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today released Obama administration correspondence containing a letter from Under Secretary of State for Management Patrick F. Kennedy asking Hillary Clinton’s lawyer to destroy all electronic copies of a classified email found in records Clinton decided to turn over to the State Department six months before.
Clinton’s attorney, David Kendall, rejected the request as Congress and other investigators had demanded electronic records be preserved.
The correspondence also shows Hillary Clinton has ignored a demand to turn over all electronic copies of the approximately 55,000 pages of emails she previously returned in paper form.
The correspondence was disclosed by the State and Justice Departments in a Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit in which Judicial Watch is asking a court to issue a preservation order to protect any emails Clinton has yet to turn over, including those emails in which she and her lawyers unilaterally determined to be personal.

Wild Thing’s comment.…………
The most corrupt administration in United States history!
This abuse of power request is truly frightening.
