It has been revealed that Hilary Clinton’s email scandal investigation has allegedly been re-opened after new emails have been found to be pertinent to the case.

James Comey, FBI Director, has revealed that the FBI is investigating new emails in connection to Hilary Clinton’s alleged improper handling of classified information during her service as Secretary of State, WPXI reports.

Comey writes in a letter to lawmakers that he and the FBI have concluded that new evidence has been revealed prompting a thorough investigation against the Secretary of State.

In July, the investigation held against Hilary Clinton for allegedly sending classified emails through an unsecured, personal email was put to a quick halt, as Comey claimed that the FBI did not find evidence that supported criminal charges against the Secretary of State.

Kellyanne Conway, Donald Trump’s campaign manager, tweeted that “A great day in our campaign just got even better.”

While CBS claims that it is too early to say that the investigation is definitely re-opened, Comey’s statement in the last paragraph of the letter seems to give us enough clue that it, indeed, has been.

“Although the FBI cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant, and I cannot predict how long it will take us to complete this additional work, I believe it is important to update your committees about our efforts in light of my previous testimony,”

According to Washington Examiner,Wikileaks has revealed that Hilary allegedly kept the email scandal from her campaign team. For months, Hilary allegedly informed just a couple of her closest aides, who kept the information hidden from the rest of the team.

Clinton’s campaign manager Robby Mook, co-chair of Clinton’s transition team Neera Tanden, and Clinton’s campaign chair John Podesta were all shocked when they found out about Hilary’s email scandal back in March 2015 after one of her emails became public by Wikileaks.

Mook was asked by Podesta if he was aware of the depth of the story, but Mook responded, “Nope.”

“We brought up the existence of emails in research this summer, but were told that everything was taken care of.”

In late December, Hilary claimed that she handed over about 30,000 emails that were exchanged through private servers, but she also admitted to deleting roughly 32,000 emails. Hilary alleged that she deleted emails that were personal and did not qualify being related to work.

While most of the investigation involved recovering deleted emails, Comey’s investigators did discover “several thousand work-related” emails among the deleted emails.

Contrary to Hilary’s claims, the FBI did reveal that classified information was, indeed, found among the emails in Hilary’s private servers, Washington Examiner reported.

“From the group of 30,000 emails returned to the State Department, 110 emails in 52 email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received.”

The Republican national committee is concerned about the seriousness of Clinton’s newly discovered emails, as the investigation has been prompted just 11 days before the Presidential election.

What’s indisputable is that Hilary Clinton jeopardized classified information on thousands of occasions in her reckless attempt to hide pay-to-play corruption at her State Department. This alone should be disqualifying for anyone seeking the presidency, a job that is supposed to begin each morning with a top secret intelligence briefing.”

Trump says that Clinton’s email scandal is “bigger than Watergate.”

“I have great respect for the fact that the FBI and the DOJ are now willing to have the courage to right the horrible mistake that they made. This was a grave miscarriage of justice that the American people fully understand. It is everybody’s hope that it is about to be corrected.”

Further, Trump made the statement that we cannot let Hilary take her “criminal scheme into the Oval office.”

This story is still developing. The Inquisitr will update this story as more information becomes available.
