The FBI has confirmed after their investigation that Hillary Clinton was storing highly classified emails on her home server. One email was about North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.
Both Clinton’s campaign and the State Department had tried to dispute the fact there was classified emails on the server and even stated they thought they might be over classified as reported by The New York Times.Her campaign spokesman, Nick Merrill said:
Our hope remains that theses releases continue without being hampered by bureaucratic infighting among the intelligence community, and that the releases continue to be as inclusive and transparent as possible.

State Department spokesman, John Kirby released a statement that sounded similar:
It’s very interesting to see them try to distort the truth or just blatantly lie as more information comes out. The bottom line is we know there she was illegally harboring highly classified information on a personal account received from a secure network. We are just hoping they hold her accountable for her actions.Classification is rarely a black and white question, and it is common for the State Department to engage internally and with our interagency partners to arrive at the appropriate decision.
Clinton has said she did not have any emails that were marked classified and that was a lie.
The inspector general for the FBI, I. Charles McCullough, III found two emails out of forty he reviewed that were determined as “Top Secret” information.
In 2009 President Obama signed an executive order that defined “Top Secret” documents as information that if disclosed could “reasonably” cause “exceptionally grave damage to national security.”
