Judge chides State Department for delay in Clinton email release


(CNN)A federal judge expressed dismay over the State Department's continued delays releasing Hillary Clinton's emails.

"The government has put me between a rock and a hard place," Judge Rudolph Contreras said at a hearing Tuesday, noting his displeasure over the State Department's explanations about the delays.

Contreras said he felt he was being forced to choose between accepting the State Department's proposed timeline without question, or else risk the accidental release of sensitive information by hurrying the process.

The State Department's proposed production schedule would result in all the remaining emails being released the day before "Super Tuesday" and after early contests in New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.

the state department's stonewalling ia not helping clinton, this country, or the democratic process. if there is anything bad in those emails, holding off releasing them just screws all of us.
