cheryl mills is turning over her paper e-mails and i have advised her to delete them, the judge said, oh, no, no, no, no one is deleting anything, and many legal experts say if you re facing scrutiny, you don t delete e-mails and that s the question that i sort of want to get at here. sure. so let me try to be as clear as possible and you can follow up and ask if anything is unclear. she provided 55,000 pages of e-mails. it s true she provided them in hard copy. that s what the law required. if the state department asked them to be provided electronically, we would have done that. the law required them to be in paper form. she made the decision after that to not retain those other than a copy that was kept why? it wasn t kept on the server, brianna, but a copy was kept by her personal attorney. why didn t she keep them on the server? i don t know what the relevant the pertinence of that would have been. she kept a copy in the possession of the electronic copy in the posse
