Comey, who took no questions after announcing his decision Tuesday, agreed to go before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee after several lawmakers sought an explanation. In saying he would not press the Justice Department to pursue an indictment against the likely Democrat nominee for president, Comey nonetheless laid out a strong case that she had violated laws regulating government employees’ safeguarding of sensitive emails.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FBI’s recommendation is surprising and confusing,” Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, said. “The fact pattern presented by Director Comey makes clear Secretary Clinton violated the law. Individuals who intentionally\u00a0skirt the law must be held accountable. Congress and the American people have a right to understand the depth and breadth of the FBI’s investigation.”<\/p>\n

Comey said 110 emails in 52 email chains discovered on Clinton\u2019s unauthorized server were classified at the time they were sent or received, including some that were \u201ctop secret.\u201d He also said that while the probe did not prove Clinton’s server was hacked, it may have been – and he pointedly noted that she used unsecure devices while visiting countries hostile to the U.S.<\/p>\n
