No Basis to Conclude Clinton Lied to FBI, Broke Law - Director Comey
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Comey also noted that while the FBI did not know if Clinton’s server was hacked, they could not prove that it was.

When asked if Clinton’s private email servers were less secure than Gmail, Comey told the US House of Representatives Oversight Committee, "Yes."

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.

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