A federal judge, appointed to the bench by former President Bill Clinton, ordered the State Department on Thursday to work with the FBI to determine if any of Hillary Clinton’s emails on her server during her tenure as secretary of state could be recovered.
“We wouldn’t be here today if this employee had followed government policy,” U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan said, in an apparent reference to Clinton.
The hearing, which lasted nearly 90 minutes, was part of another case brought by Judicial Watch seeking records on Clinton’s emails and her aide Huma Abedin’s outside employment while she worked at the State Department.
Clinton, a 2016 Democratic candidate for president, has long maintained her practice of using a private email server fell within government regulations. She has handed over 30,000 emails to her former employer but did not turn over 31,000 other emails she said were personal.
