Trump gets it right about Clinton staff 'taking the Fifth'

"When you have your staff taking the Fifth Amendment, taking the Fifth so they are not prosecuted, when you have the man that set up the illegal server taking the Fifth, I think it is disgraceful." — Donald Trump

Only one person who worked directly for Clinton is known to have asserted his Constitutional right against self-incrimination: Bryan Pagliano, a computer specialist who held a political appointment at the State Department and also worked for the Clinton family. He asserted his Fifth Amendment rights not to testify before at least two congressional committees and in a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit. He initially did so in the FBI investigation, but was granted immunity by prosecutors.

Two other computer experts, Paul Combetta and Bill Thornton, also took the Fifth in front of a House panel this month, but they worked for a tech contractor hired to handle Clinton’s server. Two lawyers who worked for Clinton, Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson, got immunity for turning over laptops, but spoke in detail with FBI investigators.
