Aide's laptop contained thousands of work emails

Hillary's closest aide Huma Abedin had 2,800 work emails on her pervert husband Anthony Weiner's laptop, The Daily Mail reports.

The number was released by Judicial Watch Tuesday, as the right-leaning watchdog continues to push in court for the timely release to the public of emails and documents from Clinton's tenure as secretary of state. The emails were on a computer given to the FBI by Weiner as the agency probed allegations that he had been sexting with an underage girl, a story first broken by DailyMail.com.

Last month, Weiner was sentenced to 21 months in prison over the sexting case.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton still believes Clinton and Abedin committed a crime as both the secretary of state and Abedin, who served as Clinton's deputy chief of staff, used private email addresses connected to a homebrew server to conduct government business.

'This is a disturbing development,' Fitton said in a press release Tuesday, which touted the number of emails found. 'Our experience with Abedin's emails suggest these Weiner laptop documents will include classified and other sensitive materials.'

'When will the Justice Department do a serious investigation of Hillary Clinton's and Huma Abedin's obvious violations of law?' Fitton asked.

The FBI did investigate Clinton's emails but closed the probe up last year.  

In July 2016, then FBI Director James Comey hosted a press conference announcing that the FBI would recommend to the Department of Justice that Democratic nominee Clinton not be charged for mishandling classified information.

While Comey called Clinton 'extremely careless' in her handling of sensitive information he also said that no 'reasonable prosecutor' would bring a criminal case against her.

Then, in October, Comey wrote a letter to lawmakers informing them of new emails found on the Weiner computer – a revelation that threw Clinton's campaign into a tailspin – one that ended up with her being beat by now President Donald Trump.

Just days after Comey's letter was made public the FBI announced that nothing new had been found and that the case against Clinton had been closed again. 

But Judicial Watch hasn't given up.

Two months after it became public knowledge that Clinton had used a private server while working as secretary of state, Judicial Watched sued the State Department in May 2015 for not handing over her emails as part of a March 2015 Freedom of Information Act request.

The group had asked for 'All emails of official State Department business received or sent by former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin from January 1, 2009 through February 1, 2013 using a non-'state.gov' email address.

In a joint status report signed off by Judicial Watch and the State Department, and dated last week, the State Department names the number of documents found on Weiner's computer – 2,800 – and says it plans to have it review of those documents completed by December 31, 2017.

'Based on a preliminary review, the State Department expects that a significant portion of these documents may be duplicative of material already reviewed and processed,' the court document reads.

There's another federal court hearing on Clinton's emails scheduled for later this week.
