A federal judge has agreed to take a look at a request to make some of Hillary Clinton's emails available to the public.
Two years ago, Judicial Watch made a routine Freedom of Information Act request, which sought out a few of Clinton's emails. The judge was informed by the state department that the emails were not available and thus threw out the case due to the lack of emails.
When the judge was suddenly informed that it turned out that those emails were not lost, since Clinton had been using a nongovernmental server for official business, the people from Judicial Watch reopened the case.
The judge, understandably incensed at Clinton's possible abuse of power, is now investigating whether or not the presidential hopeful was going out of her way to intentionally destroy emails. In a confusing turns of events, Judicial Watch, which usually pushes for governmental transparency, is teaming up with the State Department in a potentially career-ending legal case against Hillary Clinton.
The federal judge is saying that because of Hillary Clinton's unique situation, her emails and that server are State Department property. This particular federal judge has the authority to force Hillary and Bill Clinton to turn over these emails if he makes the demand.
