FBI TO MAKE CLINTON DOCUMENTS PUBLIC

- — Kevin Johnson

The FBI is expected to make public within days documents related to its now-closed inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified informatio­n while the Democratic presidenti­al nominee served as secretary of State, a federal law enforcemen­t official said Tuesday.

The bureau has been moving to prepare the documents for public release, including Clinton’s interview with federal agents last month, following public informatio­n requests, said the official who is not authorized to comment on the matter publicly.

Although FBI Director James Comey characteri­zed the handling of classified informatio­n by Clinton and others as “extremely careless,” he recommende­d last month that no criminal charges be brought following the yearlong inquiry.
