Hillary Could Be Indicted In The Next 60 Days Says Former Federal Prosecutor

Joe DiGenova a Republican former U.S. attorney says he believes Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton could be facing imminent indictment over her email scandal, possibly roiling the Iowa caucuses or the New Hampshire primary in February.

Joe who was once federal prosecutor originally appointed by President Reagan, has said that the FBI's still-pending investigation of Clinton's email server seems to have reached 'a critical mass as he spoke with conservative radio host Laura Ingraham. The FBI has been probing whether any classified intelligence was compromised through Clinton's unusual email setup, but she has steadfastly denied any wrongdoing and has yet to be charged with any crime. “They have reached a critical mass in their investigation of the secretary and all of her senior staff and it's going to come to a head, I would suggest, in the next 60 days”. “It's going to be a very complex matter for the Department of Justice, but they're not going to be able to walk away from it, they are now at over 1,200 classified emails. And, that's just for the ones we know about from the State Department. That does not include the ones that the FBI is, in fact, recovering from her hard drives” Joe said.

FBI Director James Comey has resisted efforts to lay out a timeline for his agency's probe of the Clinton case, but if it is as imminent as Joe believes, it could devastate Clinton's campaign. The Iowa caucuses are on Feb. 1 and the New Hampshire primary is on Feb. 9. A recommendation for prosecution would not only roil the presidential race, but would put President Barack Obama in an unbelievably difficult position. Decisions about prosecution, Joe noted, do not lie with the FBI but with the Justice Department. Joe said “I believe that the evidence that the FBI is compiling will be so compelling that, unless [Lynch] agrees to the charges, there will be a massive revolt inside the FBI, which she will not be able to survive as an attorney general. It will be like Watergate. It will be unbelievable. The evidence against the Clinton staff and the secretary is so overwhelming at this point that if, in fact, she chooses not to charge Hillary, they will never be able to charge another federal employee with the negligent handling of classified information. The intelligence community will not stand for that. They will fight for indictment and they are already in the process of gearing themselves to basically revolt if she refuses to bring charges".
