Judicial Watch Statement on FBI Interview Document Detailing Open Source Investigation into Hillary Clinton’s Emails

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton made the following statement in response the FBI interview document released today detailing a Judicial Watch investigation into open source information about Hillary Clinton’s emails:

“Judicial Watch sought to uncover any evidence from open sources on the Internet as to whether Hillary Clinton’s government emails had been hacked and were publically available.  Having uncovered evidence from open source data of possible hacking and the existence of a document that might be classified, Judicial Watch’s expert on the matter immediately contacted the FBI and turned his initial findings over to the agency.  Our investigation is ongoing.  We are disconcerted by what we have found thus far from publically accessible sources about the possible hacking of Hillary Clinton’s illicit server.  It is unfortunate that Judicial Watch – not Congress or federal law enforcement – undertook this basic investigative step.”
