Overview

The Hillary Clinton Email Controversy is a ongoing scandal involving former United States secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. Clinton became surrounded by controversy after it was discovered she used her private email server during her time as secretary of state.

Background

On March 2, 2015 The New York Times published an article revealing former Hillary Clinton used her own email server at the state department, instead of using her government issued one. Her aides did not save them on government servers and only certain classified materials are not saved, having these materials on her server would violate federal law.[1] In an interview on March 10, Clinton stated she used the private server for “convenience”. She also stated she had deleted over 30,000 emails she considered “personal”.[2]

Notable Developments

When Clinton’s server was obtained it was discovered to have been wiped. A thumb drive however was also brought forward. Classified material was found among the emails on the drive. Initially Clinton stated there was no classified materials among the emails but as of now her campaign spokespersons have downplayed it and called her a “recipient of unwitting information”. The discovery of classified emails prompted an ongoing investigation by the F.B.I.
