I did. Did you? The coverup couldn't be plainer.

Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.[This is a lie as the DOJ has successfully prosecuted in similar cases] Prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of factors before bringing charges.[In this case the Prosecutor was appointed by HRC's husband and will keep her job when/if HRC is elected] There are obvious considerations, like the strength of the evidence, especially regarding intent. [Intent is NOT a consideration in this case, even though there is clear evidence of intent to evade the standards demanded by the Federal gov't]Responsible decisions also consider the context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the past.[In similar situations the person was prosecuted].

In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts. [Lie]All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of: clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information; or vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of intentional misconduct; or indications of disloyalty to the United States; or efforts to obstruct justice. We do not see those things here.

To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not what we are deciding now.
