The parents of two Americans killed in the 2012 terrorist attacks on U.S. diplomatic facilities in Benghazi, Libya, filed a wrongful death lawsuit in federal court Monday against Hillary Clinton.
In the suit, Patricia Smith and Charles Woods, the parents of Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods, claim that Clinton's use of a private e-mail server contributed to the attacks. They also accuse her of defaming them in public statements.
Smith was an information management officer and Woods was a security officer, both stationed in Benghazi.
"The Benghazi attack was directly and proximately caused, at a minimum by defendant Clinton's 'extreme carelessness' in handling confidential and classified information," such as the location of State Department employees in Libya, the lawsuit said.
While no such connection has ever been established, their lawsuit called it "highly probable" that Clinton sent and received information about the activities of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
Such information, the lawsuit claimed, "easily found its way to foreign powers" and was then obtained
by Islamic terrorists.
James Comey, in announcing the findings of the FBI's investigation of her private e-mail server last month, said it was "possible that hostile actors gained access" to it. But he said the FBI did not find direct evidence that it was successfully hacked.
The two parents also said when Secretary Clinton met with them after their children were killed, she said that a controversial YouTube video was the motivation for the attacks. But they said that in later interviews she denied making such a statement and implied that the recollection of the parents was incorrect. Two Benghazi Parents Sue Hillary Clinton for Wrongful Death
Whatever the penalty is for "Wrongful death", it's not enough ,for those four lives.
I hope the families will get what they deserve aside from an apology! Freddie Grey's family got immediately money after the criminal died at his own hands and wrong doing so the family of the 4 heroes should get a lot of money and openly excuses as well as Clinton personally and en public recognizing her role in this terrible handled period under Obama/Clinton government!

Comparing Freddy Gray to Benghazi, geesh.
Benghazi was an outpost in a country in the middle of a violent civil war, Freddy Gray died from traumatic injury while in the hands of policemen.
Hillary is 100% responsible for Benghazi. My Dad taught me that you never, ever make excuses. Instead you take full responsibility and if asked you say what you will do different next time.
She has made every excuse in the book and blamed everyone else in sight. How can anyone support her bid for President of all jobs?
When you sign up to join the service you aren't guaranteed you will be coming home. The mother of this boy certainly knew that. If she was that concerned about her sons safety she should have had a serious talk with him before he signed up. We have all volunteers at this point. No drafting of the unwilling. This lawsuit is going to be expensive and go nowhere. I hope the attorney is doing this pro bono or the mother may end up homeless.
None. They'd have to be filed against Bill Clinton and the UN.
In addition to Clinton signing the Iraq Liberation Act in 1998 authorizing the use of the US military to depose Saddam Hussein (posted above), here's UN Chief Weapons Inspector Hans Blix on Iraq's WMDs in late January 2003. Good thing C-SPAN and the UN keep records of what actually happened: Dr. Hans Blix Update to the UN Security Council, 27 January 2003
Nice try.

And the kicker--he sued his own mother over medical care for his grandmother.
The man is a failed lawyer who is sue-happy and never met a lawsuit against the Clintons he wouldn't file or a conspiracy theory against them he wouldn't push.
He is using the mentally unstable Patricia Smith to further his decades-long grudge against the Clintons. It is doomed to fail, just like everything this despicable crook does.
An obvious political stunt by an attorney that has spent years dogging the Clintons. Way to honor your fallen soldier.

It's pretty bad when even FOX NEWS states this is a political stunt doomed to fail
Wow. Larry Klayman who is all about pushing lawsuits against non-conservatives is pushing an unhinged bitter woman to sue Hilary? I don't know much about Mr. Woods, but Ms. Smith is a crazy woman who is simply upset that her daughter in law was considered immediate family and she wasn't. Ms. Smith can't get over not being the person the state department was required to speak to.
