Hilary's Emails
The OIG found that Clinton did not comply with the agency's policies on records in her use of private email while US secretary of state.
Thousands of emails that Clinton sent from the private account during her tenure as Secretary of State from 2009 to 2012 have been made public last year as a result of Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by an investigative journalist.
Most were found highly sensitive and classified one of which was connected to the then ongoing battle between Sri Lanka's military forces and the Tamil Tiger fighting cadre.
The OIG report, which was provided on May 25 to the U.S. Congress for the lawmakers to study and take action, states, "At a minimum, Secretary Clinton should have surrendered all emails dealing with Department business before leaving government service and, because she did not do so, she did not comply with the Department's policies that were implemented in accordance with the Federal Records Act."
The e-mail scandal has plagued her campaign for this year's presidential election.
In one of the e-mails - undoubtedly a sensitive one - disclosed because of the Freedom of Information Act law suit granted by a federal judge - Secretary of State intervened in early May 2009 to bring obstacles to the Government of Sri Lanka when it was clear to her that the Tamil Tigers were being defeated at the battle field.
She wanted the IMF to immediately suspend funds to Sri Lanka. An email sent on May 4, 2009 seemed to suggest that the International Monetary Fund was unhappy with Secretary of State Clinton "ordering/telling" the IMF to suspend the funding of the government of Sri Lanka.
As a result of Secretary Clinton's "ordering/telling", the IMF held a meeting with the then US Secretary of Treasury, President Obama's cabinet officer handling the nation's finances, the e-mail passed through Clinton's server notes that Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner expressed that she was "intruding into his domain".
Burns Strider, a political consultant and former senior advisor to the then-secretary of state, said in the e-mail -that went through Clinton's private server she was illegally maintaining at her New York resident - that he felt "people on the ground", from both the World Bank and the IMF, believed that the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam needed to be "completely defeated" and that "collateral damage inflicted on private people" by the actions of the Sri Lankan government were "ok", in their eyes.
