State Says 5600 of 15,100 Emails Recovered by FBI Were Government Records, Not Personal as Claimed by Clinton

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23, 2016 /Standard Newswire/ -- Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton made the following statement regarding today's decision by U.S. District Court Judge James E. Boasberg ordering the Department of State to begin processing at least 1,050 pages of Hillary Clinton emails recovered by the FBI and provide Judicial Watch all non-exempt documents before November 4:
The State Department admitted that it has 5,600 Clinton emails recovered by the FBI that were government documents and not personal emails as she claimed. The public deserves to know what is in those emails, well before November 8, and the State Department should not continue dragging its feet on producing them. The State Department admitted in court today it pulled staff off of Clinton email Freedom of Information Act requests. The American people need to pressure State to stop sitting on these new Clinton emails for political reasons and release them as the law requires. It is outrageous the State Department has had these new Clinton emails since late July, but has only released 5 records.
The court ordered State to process the first 350 pages of documents by October 7, the second 350 pages by October 21, and the third by November 4. (The State Department claims a substantial number of the Clinton emails may be duplicative or near-duplicative of emails Hillary Clinton previously turned over to the State Department.)
The State Department today confirmed that the FBI discovered 15,100 new Clinton emails as a result of Judicial Watch's litigation seeking all of Mrs. Clinton's work related emails (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00687)). In late October, Judge Boasberg ordered the State Department to report to the court the volume of records from disk one (of seven at issue) that it has reviewed and be prepared to commit to a production schedule for today's hearing.
