She is reportedly accused of lying to the FBI. The FBI’s investigation of Claiborne included surveillance done under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, Reuters added in a tweet, citing a federal prosecutor.




More Details

quote:

A criminal complaint accuses Candace Marie Claiborne, who appeared before a judge Wednesday, of concealing her contacts with the intelligence agents and failing to report gifts she had received from them, including an iPhone, a laptop and international travel.



quote:

"As a State Department employee with a Top Secret clearance, she received training and briefing about the need for caution and transparency," U.S. Attorney Channing Phillips said in a statement. "This case demonstrates that U.S. government employees will be held accountable for failing to honor the trust placed in them when they take on such sensitive assignments."

That was the most pointless article ever posted. At no time did it's short, none informative rambling ever resemble a substantive piece of useful information. We are all now dumber having clicked it.

Sorry I have big problems with FISA being used for criminal law enforcement purposes.

There should be an ocean sized distance between what can be used in a courtroom vs what can be used in keeping our country safe.

WHat was her intent though? Isn't this the catch all of any federal prosecution now? Hillary lied to the FBI and Congress
