WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — On Tuesday, FBI Director James Comey announced that the FBI would not recommend charges against Clinton based on a criminal probe into her use of a private server and email account. Comey said, however, that the FBI found evidence that Clinton and her staff were "extremely careless" in handling highly classified information.

"You will have one [referral] in the next few hours," Chaffetz stated after asking if the FBI needs the note to start the investigation.

On Wednesday, US Attorney General Loretta Lynch said she had accepted FBI’s recommendation to bring no charges against Clinton.
