Judicial Watch today released the deposition transcript of Justin Cooper, a former aide to President Bill Clinton and Clinton Foundation employee who registered the domain name of the unsecure clintonemail.com server that Hillary Clinton used while serving as Secretary of State.
Cooper admits that he spoke with Cheryl Mills, Clinton's former chief of staff, one week prior to his deposition and let her know that the deposition had been scheduled.
When Cooper was asked to testify how many e-mails accounts he created or setup for Clinton he answered, "To the best of my recollection two or three." Cooper also said that he and Pagliano set up email accounts for Abedin and Chelsea Clinton.
When Cooper was asked if Clinton or anyone associated with them is paying his legal bills for this deposition or any other matters related to Secretary Clinton's use of email, he answered: "In relation to it's unclear to me if I'll be reimbursed for these - for legal fees from the Clintons. My previous legal fees about a year after the conclusion of the congressional testimony through my lawyers was negotiated for settlement for the Clintons to make payment."
He identified controversial Clinton Foundation official and advisor to President Clinton Doug Band as the individual in a redacted FBI 302 report who had conversations with Cooper and Abedin about the Apple server and who thought adding Hillary Clinton to the server was a "Bad idea."
Justin Cooper, a former aide to Bill Clinton who reportedly had no security clearance and is believed to have played a key role in setting up Hillary Clinton's non-government email system;.
"Questions surrounding a wiped server, a Clinton lawyer being informed of a scheduled deposition, contradictory testimony - all uncovered recently by Judicial Watch in its court-ordered discovery on the Clinton email scandal," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
