Clinton-Hating Lawyer Files Lawsuit Against Hillary for Benghazi Deaths

By Josh Voorhees

Dust off your acrostics—Benghazi’s back. On Monday, the parents of two Americans killed in the 2012 terrorist attack at the U.S. diplomatic outpost in Libya filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Hillary Clinton in federal court. The suit—brought by the parents of Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods, two of the four Americans who died in the attacks that also killed U.S. ambassador Christopher Stevens and Glen Doherty—claims that Clinton’s use of a private email server to conduct government business contributed to the deaths of the four Americans.

Here is the lawsuit’s main charge, which is based on FBI Director James Comey’s finding last month that Clinton was “extremely careless” with classified information when she used a private email server as secretary of state:

It is highly probable, given Defendant Clinton’s history of reckless handling of classified information, that Defendant Clinton, as Secretary of State, sent and received information about Ambassador Christopher Stevens and thus the U.S. Department of State activities and covert operations that the deceased were a part of in Benghazi, Libya. This information was compromised from the second that it left Defendant Clinton’s private e-mail server and easily found its way to foreign powers including, but not limited to Russia, Iran, China, and North Korea. As a direct result of Defendant Clinton’s reckless handling of this classified, sensitive information, Islamic terrorists were able to obtain the whereabouts of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and thus the U.S. State Department and covert and other government operations in Benghazi, Libya and subsequently orchestrate, plan, and execute the now infamous September 11, 2012 attack.


The suit, which requests unspecified damages, also accuses Clinton of defaming the plaintiffs by suggesting publicly that they were mistaken or misremembered when they said that she told them the attacks were directly caused by an anti-Muslim YouTube video.
