FBI agents investigating Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified information on a private email server Sunday obtained a warrant to search a computer used by former Rep. Anthony Weiner for communications they believe may be related to their inquiry, according to a law enforcement official familiar with the investigation.
Agents stumbled across the potentially relevant emails while investigating whether Weiner violated federal laws while exchanging sexually explicit texts with a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina. Weiner is the estranged husband of one of Clinton’s closest aides, Huma Abedin.
While searching the computer in recent weeks, agents found potentially thousands of Abedin’s emails related to her work for Clinton at the State Department, another law enforcement official said.
The laptop contains hundreds of thousands of emails, most of them Weiner’s, a third official said.
