Judge Nap: Fmr. AG Loretta Lynch Could Face 5-10 Years in Prison

LISTEN TO TLR’S LATEST PODCAST:

Fox News’ Senior Judicial Analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano says that the former United States Attorney General could face a decade in jail if she is found guilty of misconduct regarding emails with the DNC chairwoman about the Clinton email investigation.

The potential “misconduct in office,” alluded to by the Judge, rests on whether or not emails exist between former AG Loretta Lynch and former DNC chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz improperly discussing the Clinton email investigation.

“It is alleged, this document has not seen the light of day if it exists, that there are one or several emails between Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Loretta Lynch concerning the behavior that Loretta Lynch will take to further the DNC interests while Mrs. Lynch was attorney general,” Napolitano stated, according to InfoWars. “That, if it happened, would be ‘misconduct in office.’”

“It’s a felony. Depending upon exactly what they charged her with, it could be five or 10 years in jail. It’s very serious. It’s the equivalent of obstruction of justice. It’s the same allegation they are making about the president.”

Sen. Chuck Grassley, the head of the Senate probe into the situation, wrote to Lynch in a letter asking directly if she’s ever communicated with Schultz.

“During your time in the Justice Department, did you ever have communications with Rep. Wasserman Schultz, her staff, her associates, or any other current or former DNC officials about the Clinton email investigation?” the letter read, with another question asking if “any of your Justice Department staff or your other associates” had similar communications.

Grassley’s inquiry followed the testimony of former FBI Director James Comey earlier this month claiming he felt “queasy” after Lynch asked him to refer to the FBI’s probe of Clinton’s emails as a “matter” instead of an “investigation,” said InfoWars.

This “terminology,” Napolitano stated, “may be indicative of a mindset on the part of Attorney General Lynch that she was going to do whatever she could to prevent Mrs. Clinton from getting indicted.”

In previous testimony, which was under oath, Comey admitted that former AG Lynch’s “impromptu” meeting with former President Bill Clinton on the tarmac of an airport destroyed the FBI’s ability to carry out the Clinton email investigation in a credible manner.
