Hillary Clinton interviewed by FBI about email scandal
Clinton campaign spokesman Nick Merrill confirmed the voluntary interview with federal agents had taken place.
“She is pleased to have had the opportunity to assist the Department of Justice in bringing this review to a conclusion.
“Out of respect for the investigative process, she will not comment further on her interview.”
Clinton came under fire after it emerged she used her family’s private email server for official communications when she was Secretary of State. Some people have argued that her actions violated state department protocols and federal laws.
Legal experts view criminal prosecution as exceedingly unlikely. The interview may indicate that the Justice Department’s year-long probe is drawing to a close.
The Democratic Party is expected to formally nominate Clinton for president in the coming weeks.
