Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) appeared on MSNBC Thursday morning and called for a special prosecutor to investigate if Huma Abedin committed a crime by forwarding the classified material to her husband, Anthony Weiner’s computer.

“If there was classified information and it was improperly passed to a person unauthorized to receive it, yes, naturally it’s a crime,” Blumenthal said. “Without knowing what the intentions were and so forth, there is potentially a prosecutable crime.”

Host Joe Scarborough asked if it should have been prosecuted.

“It still may be, potentially. It’s not outside the statute of limitations, so far as I know. It’s one that the Department of Justice is going to have to decide,” Blumenthal continued. “The question is: who will decide it? That’s why we need a special prosecutor to review all of this investigative material.”
