FBI Director James Comey issued a mandate late Thursday instructing
all available special agents from the Washington D.C. field office and Hoover
Building headquarters to report to work immediately, federal law enforcement
sources said.
“We’re preparing for many arrests from the top down,” the
FBI source said. “I cannot elaborate beyond that.”
When pressed to
better define what “from the top down” meant in terms of possible suspects, the
source refused to elaborate.
“You’re a smart
guy; read between the lines,” the source said.
Based on case
protocol, the FBI is either preparing to conduct sweeping search warrants in
the Clinton Foundation investigation or ready to start arresting suspects, or
both. If a grand jury has been convened by the Justice Department since Comey’s
decision to re-open the Hillary Clinton case last week, then the FBI could make
arrests if indictments were handed down by Thursday (yesterday). If not, it is more likely FBI agents are
being amassed for multiple simultaneous raids on suspects’ homes and businesses
to secure warrant-backed evidence.
Will search
warrants be served on Friday? Based on FBI protocol, Friday raids are
unorthodox in cases not involving kidnappings or investigations where human
lives are at risk. Preparation for wide-scale raids can take 48 hours or more,
depending on how many targets are in play.
The Clinton
investigation has reached a fever pitch this week fueled by alarming new
allegations first unveiled on Wednesday. New revelations
from newly-recovered Clinton emails, according to law enforcement sources,
implicate the Democratic presidential candidate, her subordinates, and even
select elected officials in far more alleged serious crimes than mishandling
classified and top secret emails, sources said. NYPD sources linked to the
probe said these new emails include evidence linking Clinton herself and
associates to:
·
Money laundering
·
Child exploitation
·
Sex crimes with minors (children)
·
Perjury
·
Pay to play through Clinton Foundation
·
Obstruction of justice
·
Other felony crimes
Documents and
emails released late Thursday by Wikileaks substantiated certain allegations of
child exploitation linked to the Clinton Foundation; with Hillary as secretary
of state and President Bill Clinton acting as a United Nation’s special envoy
to Haiti after its devastating 2010 earthquake.
