    Clinton aides’ BlackBerrys likely destroyed

    State Department BlackBerry devices issued to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's aides Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin have likely been destroyed or sold off, the department said in a court filing on Wednesday.

    Mills and Abedin “were each issued BlackBerry devices,” department Executive Secretary Joseph Macmanus wrote in the filing.

    The department, however, “has not located any such device,” and believes that they would have been destroyed or removed from the department's control.



    “Because the devices issues to Ms. Mills and Ms. Abedin would have been outdated models, in accordance with standard operating procedures those devices would have been destroyed or excessed,” Macmanus added.
    State Department spokesman John Kirby confirmed later on Wednesday afternoon that the two former officials’ devices were returned to the department after they left office.

    “They belong to the United States government, and when you leave an agency you just turn it in,” Kirby said. “So yes, they were turned in. Where they are now I couldn’t begin to tell you.

    “It’s also likely, because this was a while ago, that those devices may have been destroyed,” he added. “I don’t have the records of it because they were old and outmoded and often times we purchase new devices” in those circumstances.

    In the same court filing, the State Department confirmed its previous claim that Clinton used a personal BlackBerry during her time in office that was not issued by the federal government.

    The State Department “does not believe that any personal computing device was issued by the department to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and has not located any such device at the department,” Macmanus wrote.

    News of the Clinton aides’ devices adds to the growing scrutiny on the Democratic presidential front-runner and two of her top advisors, both of whom have been drawn into the fire surrounding the Clinton email furor.

    The criticism has been a major drag on Clinton’s presidential campaign, and has provided a nearly endless supply of ammunition to her critics — including some Democrats.

    Wednesday’s filing came as part of a lawsuit from the conservative organization Judicial Watch, which is looking for documents related to Abedin’s employment arrangement while she served in the State Department.

    “The questions just keep popping up,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “Every time the State Department tries to justify its stonewalling, one more bit of information arises.”

    A hearing in the case before the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia is scheduled for Thursday afternoon.

    Give me a break. How long do you think government surplus equipment is kept? Millions of items get recycled or auctioned annually Hillary and her aides have been gone three years and their blackberrys got surplused shortly afterwards.

    Desperate to manufacture a scandal. Sad.

    I'd get comfortable. Every piece of her life is going to be torn to shreds and demonized.

    I know right? Must be in line with that transparent theme. If there was ever a bitch that belonged in jail. She could start a reality show and eclipse anything she has ever scammed from her political career that needs to end REAL soon.

    @red55 @Tiger in NC Morning Joe just was discussing the other email scandals. John Heilman noted that Petreaus was convicted for mishandling sensitive emails that WERE NOT MARKED. That excuse has just been shot out of the water. Also several commenters from within the intelligence community reiterated that it is a responsibility of the sender to insure an email or any document is properly classified. As SOS she had the responsibility to understand much of her correspondence is sensitive. To be so cavalier about it is both insulting to our intelligence and a proof of her unsuitability to hold office.
