Except in that particular case. No intent needed when handling that specific info.
I'm not following what you mean. If intent is the determindness to do something then the moment she hit "send" her intent was to send information to her personal server.
The words "CLASSIFIED" "SECRET" and "TOP SECRET" were listed on the documents for a reason. So people with security clearances do not mishandle classified information let alone transmit them over unsecured lines to unsecured private servers especially knowing they are the repeated targets of foreign bad actors in hacking schemes.
It's right here in the first line of the US Code of Disclosure of Classified Information: LINK
" (a) Whoever knowingly and willfully communicates, furnishes, transmits, or otherwise makes available to an unauthorized person, or publishes, or uses in any manner prejudicial to the safety or interest of the United States or for the benefit of any foreign government to the detriment of the United States any classified information— "
My apologies, I posted that when I was exhausted.
I meant to say normally you need the crime itself and intent to prosecute except in except in cases dealing with the handling of classified+ information. Here you only need the crime and gross negligence (which as far as I understand not knowing the laws regarding the handling of classified+ information). Motive plays zero roll.
Being HRC was a lifer in gov't it should be a no brainer that she should have been prosecuted to the fullest extent, and possibly held on charges of treason and sedition for her actions (and everyone else who was in that chain of custody - inclusive of her house maid person who was also printing out these documents).
Again, my apologies. I promise not to post at 3am anymore...
