   An employee of Platte River Networks, the Colorado tech company   
   that managed Hillary Clinton’s private server, worried they were   
   inadvertently “covering up some shaddy [sic] shit” by heeding   
   Clinton’s request to reduce the number of e-mails stored on the   
   server, according to a letter from Senate Homeland Security   
   Committee chairman Ron Johnson (R., Wis.).   
      
   Johnson’s letter, first reported by McClatchy, quotes a series   
   of e-mails between Platte River employees late this summer, as   
   the Clinton e-mail scandal continued to rage. One worker noticed   
   that Clinton’s representatives had twice instructed the small   
   tech company to significantly reduce the amount of e-mail data   
   being stored each time it backed up the server.   
      
   In hindsight, the nature and timing of the requests seemed   
   suspicious. Clinton’s team first asked Platte River to start   
   storing only the last 30 days of e-mails with each server backup   
   in October or November of 2014, just before she turned over what   
   she said were her official e-mails to the State Department. They   
   reiterated that request in February, just before the scandal   
   broke publicly. “This whole thing really is covering up some   
   shaddy [sic] shit,” the unidentified employee wrote, worried   
   that Platte River Networks could be blamed. “If we have it in   
   writing that they told us to cut the backups, and then we can go   
   public with our statement saying we have had backups since day   
   one, then were told to trim to 30 days, it would make us look a   
   WHOLE LOT better.”   
      
   Johnson’s letter is also the first confirmation of the existence   
   of another Clinton e-mail trove — this one maintained by the   
   Connecticut-based Datto, Inc., which contracted with Platte   
   River to keep a backup copy of Clinton’s server at a cloud-   
   storage site. In the letter, addressed to Datto, Johnson asks   
   the company to confirm reports that data from Clinton’s server   
   was inadvertently stored in the wrong location, and may still be   
   retained on-site.   
      
   Several weeks ago, Platte River employees discovered that   
   Clinton’s private server was improperly syncing to an off-site   
   Datto location. “This is a problem,” one Platte River employee   
   wrote to Datto, asking the company to ensure the data wasn’t   
   deleted and work to safeguard it until it could be moved back to   
   Clinton’s server. According to Johnson, the mix-up means that   
   “Datto apparently possessed a backup of the server’s contents   
   since 2013.”  Johnson said it is unclear whether the server-   
   backup files retained by Datto still exist. Clinton has said she   
   deleted more than 31,000 personal e-mails after turning over all   
   her professional messages to the State Department last December.   
   The potential existence of another source of Clinton’s   
   electronic correspondence raises the possibility that many of   
   these personal e-mails still exist, and could eventually be   
   released.
