WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwired - June 27, 2016) - Judicial Watch today released 165 pages of new State Department records that include a previously unreleased March 22, 2009, email of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton revealing that she was concerned about how her records were being handled and had "no idea how my papers are treated at State. Who manages both my personal and official files?" Clinton top aide Huma Abedin responds: "We've discussed this" and promises to explain it again. This is the fifth set of records produced to Judicial Watch by the State Department (from the non-"state.gov" email accounts of Huma Abedin) that contain Hillary Clinton emails that were not produced by the State Department as part of the 55,000 pages of emails that Hillary Clinton turned over to the State Department.

These records further appear to contradict statements by Clinton that, "as far as she knew," all of her government emails were turned over to the State Department even though she turned over no emails dated prior to March 18, 2009. These new records release contain 34 new @clintonemail.com emails that have not been previously produced by to the State Department.

The documents were produced under court order in a May 5, 2015, Freedom of Information (FOIA) lawsuit against the State Department (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00684)) for "all emails of official State Department business received or sent by former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin from January 1, 2009 through February 1, 2013 using a non-"state.gov" email address."

In the March 2009 Clinton email exchange with Abedin and Lauren Jiloty, former special assistant to Clinton, concerning "how my papers are being treated at State," Clinton urges that they "design a system" and "get on this asap:"

Dear Lauren and Huma—

I have just realized I have no idea how my papers are treated at State. Who manages both my personal and official files?

I am sending out material the way I did w Lauren in the Senate, but I don't know what's happening w it all. For instance, I've sent a few things to Cheryl but she says she hasn't read them. Does Claire manage this or does it all go to Joe? Are there personal files as well as official ones set up? If I don't write anything on paper -- as I mostly don't -- Lauren knew how to file it all in the Senate. I'm sending out a mix which sometimes Claire and other times Lauren picks up from the out box. What happens then is a mystery to me!

So, I think we need to get on this asap to be sure we know and design the system we want. Let me know what you both think. Thx.

From: Huma Abedin

We've discussed this. I can explain it to you when I see u today.

The new documents also include a March 23, 2009, email exchange between then-State Department Official Corley Kenna and former Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, containing the political contribution history of Judith Heumann. The contribution history contains five separate contributions to the presidential campaigns of Clinton and Barack Obama. According to the documents, Mills forwarded the email exchange directly to Clinton. In 2010, Heumann was appointed as the State Department Special Advisor on Disability Rights.

The new emails also show new communications between Clinton Foundation advisers (including Douglas Band), Abedin, and Clinton about the Middle East, and a Haiti "donors" conference. The emails show that Clinton wanted to collect positive comments about her tenure to give to the press reporting on her first 100 days in office. The emails also show that Clinton tried to obtain a job at State for the son of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

And a March 21, 2009, email from a sender whose name seems to have been kept secret contains explicit instructions to Clinton and Mills on how to handle a State Department "team meeting" that is to occur the following day. Clinton is advised to create the "perception" that "you are interested and engaged … that you are listening and that you are watching." [Emphasis in original]
