Judge Nap: Comey Thought He Could Pull a Fast One by Using a Slightly Less Offensive Sounding Term

EXCERPT:

NAPOLITANO: "July 5 ,James Comey surprises everybody with a surprise announcement. He’s number 3 in the Justice Department but he is not letting his bosses decide. He has decided Hillary Clinton will not be prosecuted because she’s was extremely careless rather than intentional with respect to the manner in which she failed to safeguard state secrets on her e-mail system, her private server. This is the rare federal statute that doesn’t require the government to prove intent. This statute, the government can get a conviction if you are grossly negligent. So I ask you, and I ask anybody watching us now who understands the English language which is everybody watching us, what is the difference between 'grossly negligent' and 'extremely careless?' Nothing. They mean the same thing. James Comey thought he could pull a fast one on the American people by using a slightly less offensive sounding term, 'extremely careless,' and thereby exonerate her. Legally, it’s the same thing. She looked the other way knowing that state secrets were available for people to hack and that they, in fact, were hacked."
