The real reason Hillary was not prosecuted as if she had been Obama would have been implicated. He used her email address.I suggest you read what Turley says in his op-ed. You will note that he doesn't really make a case for..criminal prosecution. He focuses on department policy NOT federal law.
In order FOR Hillary to be prosecuted the government would have to show that the only reasonable explanation for her to use her private server is for her to share, or collect classified info. It can not be for instance convience. That is what beyond reasonable doubt means. It doesn't matter what you personally believe.
As for personally realising what she'd did. Sure. That's why you will find me on this board supporting Comey's decisions to reopen the investigation and doing so publicly, a few days before the General election in 2015. An act that more than likely cost her the presidency.
If you are careless with national security you will get no sympathy for any consequences that might insue from that action.
That is not at issue here though. The issue is if Hillary was let of the hook criminally because of party affiliation. And to that I say that facts and precedent give no indication of that.
As a side note I will further note that my opinion on national security is applicable to all CURRENT security breaches by officials and former officials. So nobody gets a free pass. Something I suspect is something you don't agree with.

Obama, our first black President, must never be charged with any crimes. Hillary might have used the fact that Obama was emailing her in her defense. He may well have emailed her classified information.
We must view Obama as a great President. Perhaps the greatest President of all time. It would be racist the consider him any other ways.
If it wasn’t for the scandal of Biden mishandling classified information numerous times we might see Trump prosecuted.
It is going to be harder to prosecute anybody for mishandling classified information in the future. Americans are not all that fond of hypocrisy.
