Clinton IT aide pleads Fifth, skips hearing
The former State Department employee who set up Hillary Clinton’s private email server did not appear before the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday morning despite a subpoena to testify on the deletion of some of Clinton’s emails.
Bryan Pagliano exercised his Fifth Amendment right not to testify against himself before the House Select Committee on Benghazi in 2015. He was also reportedly awarded an immunity deal during the FBI’s now-closed investigation into Clinton’s use of the server while secretary of State.
“It’s a serious matter. Mr. Pagliano has chosen to evade a subpoena duly issued by the committee. I will consult with counsel and my colleagues to consider a full range of options available to address Mr. Pagliano’s failure to appear,” Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) said.
“He should be here. When you are served a subpoena by the United States Congress, that is not optional,” he said. Rep. John Mica (R-Fla.) suggested that contempt of Congress could be an option for the committee.

GUILTY!
LOCK HER UP!
Typically immunity grants come with a cleavet that you cannot plead the fifth in any such matters or it invalidates it... they are supposed to be forthcoming and honest about all such information... its not a get out of jail free card... its a fair exchange for helping out the investigation in its entirity
