NBC News on Hillary's Server: "There Was an Attempt To Wipe It" - FBI Still MIGHT Be Able to Recover Some Information


From NBC News:
The FBI may be able to recover at least some data from Hillary Clinton's private email server even though there was an attempt to wipe it, two sources with direct knowledge of the process told NBC News on Tuesday. 
The FBI is investigating the security of Clinton's personal server and the thumb drives that contain emails related to her work as secretary of state during President Barack Obama's first term. 
The Clinton campaign has previously acknowledged that there was an attempt to wipe the server before it was turned over last week to the FBI. The FBI "will try to figure what's there, how it got there and who put it there," one of the sources said.
Still, when the question is put to her:

"The FBI said you tried to wipe the server. Did you try to wipe the entire server?"

She makes a wiping gesture, and says, "What, like with a cloth or something?"

She's making a joke out of it.

Still when pressed directly, she can offer up nothing but the most lawyerly response. On whether Hillary or her people tried to wipe the server, Hillary says "that's for the the people investigating to try to figure out."
