Clinton’s criminal investigation should disqualify her

Colin McKee, Staff Writer

Hillary Clinton should not even be able to have the chance to run for President of the United States or to even be part of the U.S. government because of the controversy of the deleted E-mails containing classified information.

Even if the E-mail scandal turns out to be true or not she has lost the trust of many of the people and government.  Every person – man or woman – have to sign a contract where they have to handle or deal with any classified information. That contract is called the “Classified Information Nondisclosure Agreement.”  What this contract basically says is that you are sworn to secrecy and not to share anything you have seen or heard pertaining to classified information. Failure to do so will result in a heavy consequence to anybody who breaks the signed agreement. Any government official that has signed this agreement and has disclosed any classified information has been punished with immediate loss of clearance for classified information and immediate loss of job.

Other possible consequences are major fines or possible prison service time. Clinton knew the consequences to this agreement when she signed it. When Clinton had received at least two e-mails containing heavily classified information on her personal e-mail account and erased them, this showed obvious negligence of classified information.  When she sent them out to other people with classified clearance because it was from her personal account, it was illegal.  This is why government officials are given accounts specially to work and information like this.

Clinton breached the contract due to negligence to national security. The FBI continues to look deeper into Clinton’s case, but the negligence alone of classified information should have had Clinton removed from her current position of office and should destroy any chances of her ever having a classified clearance ever again and especially to ever be President.
