The State Department obtained copies of an email chain former secretary Hillary Clinton had not previously turned over from her private account, officials told The Associated Press on Friday.
The thread, which contains fewer than 10 emails exchanged with Gen. David Petraeus, reportedly began before Clinton took office in January 2009 but continued after she was sworn in. It largely concerns personnel matters, and doesn't appear to contain classified information, officials said.
The Democratic presidential frontrunner has previously said she didn't start using her personal email account and homebrew server until March 18, and that she had turned over all records that hadn't been deleted. The chain with Petraeus disputes her assertion that for her first two months in office, she exclusively used a Blackberry account she can no longer access.
