How will a devious, ruthless Clinton escape from all this? Oppo research maybe?

Get Out Of Jail Free

FBI grants immunity to Clinton staffer who set up email server  "This could be the beginning of the end for Hillary’s political career, with the now immunized Bryan Pagliano, no mere IT tech, but rather a member of Hillary’s 2008 campaign, free to sing like a bird and implicate others in a criminal conspiracy.
"Or not.
"Adam Goldman of the Washington Post broke the story:" . . .
. . . This could set off a cascade of witnesses flipping, to avoid prison, by implicating their superiors.  William Jacobson of Legal Insurrection outlines the process:

Several months ago, Kemberlee predicted that getting a State Department employee to flip on Hillary would be the key, Some dare say conspiracy: Who will be first Hillary aide to flip on her?: . . .
. . . "This blows to hell the Hillary camp contention that this is just a security review.  It is now unmistakably a criminal inquiry, and immunity is not casually granted.  Usually it means that there is something specific of a criminal nature that is being sought, and that the recipient of the immunity is a smaller fish.
"And who would the big fish be?" . . .   
I suppose Hillary's oppo research team looking for dirt on Republican candidates is also looking for juicy bits on possible prosecutors in her case.  Let's hope that FBI Director Comey -among others - is as clean as a whistle. TD

Here is the Legal Insurrection article: Hillary email scandal moves into flip flip flip phase   . . . "As I said earlier, Bernie Sanders just needs to hang on long enough, Bernie playing to box out other candidates after Hillary indicted.
"Until Huma flips. Then it’s all over."

Hillary can silence Huma with the threat to release nude photos of her husband. Oh, wait...never mind.

Comey Speaks, Tersely   "On the rare occasions when she is asked about the FBI investigation arising from her use of an insecure email server to conduct official business as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton refers to it as “a security review.” It is, moreover, “a security review” that “was requested,” as though the FBI is doing someone a favor. The woman lies with the ease and abandon of a pathological liar.
(Emphasis mine, TD)

"Clinton makes it sound routine. The FBI, however, does not perform “security reviews.” It conducts criminal investigations. Its handling of the Clinton email matter clearly constitutes a criminal investigation."
. . . Note Comey’s use of the term “investigation” to describe the FBI’s work on the matter. Note also his proclamation of involvement in it. Whatever the outcome, he will bear responsibility." . . . 
As Presidential Campaign Unfolds, So Do Inquiries Into Clinton’s Emails

. . . "As Hillary Clinton moves toward the Democratic presidential nomination, she faces legal hurdles from her use of a private computer server as secretary of state that could jar her campaign’s momentum in the months ahead. Foremost among a half-dozen inquiries and legal proceedings into whether classified information was sent through Mrs. Clinton’s server is an investigation by the F.B.I., whose agents, according to one law enforcement official, could seek to question Mrs. Clinton’s closest aides and possibly the candidate herself within weeks." . . .
