I just saw on the Propaganda Broadcasting System news a clip of Comey, who said they pretty much compromised classified information by sloppiness or "carelessness," using multiple personal servers and devices that likely got hacked by foreign players, etc., 14 minutes of evidence of wrongdoing. Those are all criminal violations of the Espionage Act and should have been turned over to a US Attorney for presentation to a Federal Grand Jury for an indictment.
Intent has nothing to do with the wording of the law, which is pretty clear that if you do any of that stuff he enumerated by "gross negligence," you have committed espionage. "Intent" is covered in other portions of the law, but not the one I cited below.

My lawyer once settled a business disagreement that might have gone to court by using the legal principle of "inadvertence" since the tort was unintentional. It stretched the legal meaning of the principle, but the plaintiffs lawyer decided not to sue; possibly because he thought the judge would invoke the principle. "The term inadvertence is generally used in reference to a ground upon which a judgment may be set aside or vacated under the Rules of Federal Civil Procedure or state rules of civil procedure." http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Inadvertence Mine was a civil procedure while Hillarys was/is a (criminal?) procedure? Can inadvertence be used in potential criminal cases? Better ask Snook. Did the Democratic administration get the FBI into the case so it could "clear" Hillary, and deprive the Republicans of an issue during the campaign? Hmmmm.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~On 05/07/2016 4:31 PM, Joel Cairo via Mercedes wrote:I find it quite interesting that the FBI director presents evidence of several felonies, then proceeds to say there is nothing there for an indictment because it was not "intentional." Funny, I thought it was a US Attorney who would take evidence to a Federal Grand Jury then ask for an indictment. Oh wait, Bill (who is also apparently under a federal investigation) and Loretta got that sorted out the other day... I guess it really is only poor people who can't get justice in the US. --JCOn 7/5/16 5:27 PM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes wrote:Better tell the FBI really fast!
