Top Clinton aide Huma Abedin has a ‘criminal investigation’ launched against her in 2013 by the State Department, investigating a possible ‘theft’ in the form of extra overtime billed.
WASHINGTON — The State Department inspector general opened a “criminal investigation” of top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin in 2013, though the Justice Department declined to pursue the case, according to reports.
The State Department watchdog was investigating possible “theft” by Abedin in the form of extra overtime billed and overpayments received.
“This is to notify you the U.S. Department of State, Office of Inspector General, Washington, D.C., has opened a criminal investigation of the following: Subject: Huma M. Abedin. Title: Former Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. Office: Office of the Secretary,” reads the notice to the FBI obtained by Politico.
But the fact that Justice didn’t pursue the matter indicates they found that she didn’t do anything intentionally wrong. State has now asked Abedin to pay back about $10,000 the inspector general says she was overcompensated.
