Sorry, I don’t buy that. But at least what he is saying is that the immunity offered was limited, which theoretically means that she could still be prosecuted for thing not related to the laptop. But given she was a major potential defendant, I wouldn’t have given it to her.

The Justice Department granted immunity to Hillary Clinton lawyer Cheryl Mills in order to gain access to a laptop computer that would have otherwise been tied up in litigation for years, FBI Director James Comey testified Tuesday.
“Having done this for many, many years, a grand jury subpoena for a lawyer’s laptop would likely entangled us in litigation over privilege for a very long time,” Comey told Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse during a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing.
“And so by June of this year I wanted that laptop, our investigators wanted that laptop, and the best way to get it was through negotiation.”
