During the final months of the Clinton email investigation, FBI agent Peter Strzok was advised of an irregularity in the metadata of Hillary Clinton's server that suggested a possible breach, but there was no significant follow up, according to two sources with knowledge of the matter.
Sources told Fox News that Strzok, who sent anti-Trump text messages that got him removed from the ongoing Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe, was told about the metadata anomaly in 2016, but Strzok did not support a formal damage assessment.
Intelligence beyond top secret was identified on the Clinton server.
As secretary of state, Clinton chose to use a private, non-secure server for government business.
In December, when the texts between Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page became public, congressional sources said Strzok was part of then FBI Director James Comey's inner circle, who advised and made edits to Comey's July 2016 public statement recommending against criminal charges in the Clinton probe.
The edits addressed the likelihood the Clinton server had been compromised.
In the initial May 2016 draft, two months before Clinton and more than a dozen key witnesses were interviewed, Comey said it was "Reasonably likely" that "Hostile actors" gained access to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's private email account.
