The FBI on Monday issued nearly 100 new pages of notes and interview summaries from its yearlong probe into Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server, revealing more about FBI's decision not to launch a criminal charge against the former secretary of state over the matter.
It is expected the records may also shed new lights on the possibility that Clinton may have mishandled classified information during her stay in the State Department.
The newly-published documents include an interview with an unnamed individual, who suggested that Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests related to Clinton went through a group sometimes called "the Shadow Government," according to a CNBC report.
"There was a powerful group of very high-ranking STATE officials that some referred to as 'The 7th Floor Group' or 'The Shadow Government.' This group met every Wednesday afternoon to discuss the FOIA process, Congressional records, and everything CLINTON-related to FOIA/Congressional inquiries," the FBI's interview summary said.
Another record revealed that one unnamed interviewee said that Undersecretary of State Patrick Kennedy pressured the FBI to unclassify certain emails from Hillary Clinton's private server that were previously deemed classified.
Lawmakers and aides from the House Oversight and Intelligence committees have claimed that the documents reveal evidence of a criminal "quid pro quo" between Kennedy and the FBI, according to a TheHill news daily report.
