Good God, you people don’t even know how a SP is appointed…Trump could have assigned a a prosecutor in the morning...
That is how simple it would have been...
It was a made up. If they prosecuted it was a pretty simple defense, her two predecessors used private servers..
Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice used private accounts for classified emails
Hillary Clinton’s campaign has seized on findings that Rice and Powell were sent sensitive national security information to nongovernment email addresseswww.theguardian.com
This would suggest common practice set up by predecessors.. So you want a judge to convict Hillary for something others are doing as well...
No way you getting a conviction for that...
A special prosecutor is a prosecutor who is independent of an office that would normally exercise jurisdiction in a criminal investigation—to avoid potential conflicts of interest or to facilitate subject matter area expertise. At the federal level, under 28 CFR § 600.1, a special prosecutor is referred to as a “special counsel,” and may be appointed by the attorney general to criminally investigate an individual or matter in cases where a Justice Department investigation would present a conflict of interest, or in other “extraordinary circumstances.” Under Supreme Court precedent in Morrison v. Olson, Congress may also appoint a special counsel through the passage of legislation. Notable special counsels in U.S. history include Ken Starr of the Clinton Whitewater investigation and Lawrence Walsh of the Iran-Contra Affair.
