Comey: I Worry About Precedent Set By Clinton Regarding Classified Material (The Washington Free Beacon)

FBI Director James Comey said Thursday that he did worry about the precedent set by Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server to transmit classified information for other federal employees.

Rep. Will Hurd (R., Texas) asked Comey if he was concerned about whether Clinton’s conduct “sends a message” to other employees regarding such behavior.

“Oh, I worry very much about that,” Comey said. “That’s why I talked about that in my statement, because an FBI employee might face severe discipline, and I want them to understand that those consequences are still going to be there.”
