There is "overwhelming evidence" that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is guilty of espionage and other crimes, Judge Andrew Napolitano said Thursday, and he's been asking Attorney General Jeff Sessions "for months" to reopen her email investigation.
"She shouldn't be immune from prosecution because she ran for president and lost, or because her last name is Clinton," the Fox News senior judicial analyst told Fox News' "Fox & Friends."
The evidence has been mounting about the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee's guilt for "espionage, failure to safeguard state secrets" for some time, said Napolitano. "That's the 22 or 23 top-secret pieces of information that were on her private server."
He pointed out that the statute of limitations would be 10 years and hasn't run out yet.
"The reason she wasn't prosecuted has been shot through by [former FBI Director] James Comey's own words in the past two weeks, as a political reason rather than law enforcement," said Napolitano.
The prevailing argument against prosecuting Clinton is that "we are not a banana republic" and that victor in a race, President Donald Trump, "doesn't put the loser in jail," said Napolitano, but there is "evidence of serious felonies on her part."
