Attorney General: Hillary Clinton Won't Be Charged In Email Probe | Fox Business

Attorney General Loretta Lynch said in a statement Wednesday afternoon that she does not plan to file any charges against presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton for Clinton's email practices as secretary of state. Clinton used a personal email server while dealing with confidential information in her role leading the State Department in President Barack Obama's administration, which led to an inquiry. FBI Director James Comey blasted Clinton's email practices Tuesday, but said that the FBI did not feel charges were "appropriate" in the case. In her statement, Lynch said she spoke to Comey at length earlier in the day and came to the same realization. "I received and accepted their unanimous recommendation that the thorough, year-long investigation be closed and that no charges be brought against any individuals within the scope of the investigation" Lynch wrote.
