Bill and Hillary Clinton slapped with racketeering lawsuit
Freedom Watch’s Larry Klayman filed a Racketeering lawsuit against Bill and Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation on Wednesday. The lawsuit was filed in Florida, which includes a request to have the Florida judge seize the personal server on which former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her staff hosted their emails while she served in the State Department. Klayman has been known for filing lawsuits against the Clintons and other established politicians. The Clinton Foundation faces a RICO case. The case alleges the former first family and their foundation traded favors from international leaders for large donations or generous speaking fees. The suit was filed before the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, Civil Action No. 9:15-cv-80388.

Klayman claims that the Clintons, through both mail and wire fraud, misappropriated documents which he was entitled to under the Freedom of Information Act regarding Hillary Clinton’s involvement in leaking Irsaeli cyber-warfare plans and practices. Hillary Clinton orchestrated this release to harm and thwart Israeli plans to preemptively attack Iranian nuclear sites to stop the Islamic nation’s march to producing atomic weapons. Klayman issued another FOIA request calling for the release of Hillary Clinton and other State Department’s records which relate to the granting of waivers for persons, companies, countries, and other interests to do business with Iran, in an attempt to undermine the economic sanctions.
Klayman issued a statement relating to the lawsuit against the Clinton Foundation. “This is the first and only hard-hitting case to address the growing email scandal. What Hillary Clinton, her husband, and their foundation have done is nothing new. It is simply part of a criminal enterprise which dates back at least 10 years, all designed to enrich themselves personally at the expense of the American people and our nation. It’s time, however, that they finally be held legally accountable.” The current email scandal is attempting to cover up evidence of the Clinton cash crimes and other related crimes by losing emails that would incriminate the former first family.
Klayman is asking the U.S. District Court to bring in a neutral forensic expert to take control of the private email server and preserve the official U.S. Government records relating to the conduct of foreign policy during Clinton’s time as Secretary of State. Hillary Clinton handed over 55,000 printed pages of emails to the State Department in November of last year and reportedly erased the remaining records off her private server.
