Judge Andrew Napolitano on Thursday implored Jeff Sessions to take the case against Hillary Clinton to a grand jury, saying the "evidence of her guilt is overwhelming on espionage."

Napolitano made the comments on Fox News' "Fox & Friends" morning show, adding the attorney general should make up for the sins committed by former FBI Director James Comey.

"They did go easy on Hillary Clinton," Judge Nap told the Fox News panel. "Jim Comey was profoundly wrong. He was wrong on the facts. He was wrong on the law. He was wrong to make the decision we're not going to prosecute her.

"Jeff Sessions . . . should re-examine the evidence against Mrs. Clinton, give it to prosecutors and say present it to a grand jury," Judge Nap said. "The evidence of her guilt is overwhelming on espionage.

"Now we know the evidence of her guilt in lying to the FBI is overwhelming. All of that should be sent to a grand jury," Judge Nap said.



Napolitano offered high praise to "very trustworthy" Christopher Wray, the new FBI director who spent Thursday testifying before the House Judiciary Committee.

"The wrong people are testifying," Judge Nap said on the show. "Loretta Lynch should be testifying. Jim Comey should be testifying.

"Chris Wray is very trustworthy. He is very new in the job. He is going to get some slack, basically," Napolitano said. "He has the unenviable position of defending events and decisions that took place long before he was there. . . . Chris Wray had nothing to do with this."

Judge Nap disagreed with the lather being worked up over reports an FBI agent working on special counsel Robert Mueller's team was removed over bias for Clinton.

"Every FBI agent I know – you know these men and women – they have political opinions like the rest of us," Judge Nap said. "If the FBI hates the mob, can he be involved in a mob investigation? FBI agents have biases like everybody.

"Judges and juries have to be pure as Caesar's wife," Napolitano said.
