A longtime Clinton aide who had involvement in the former first couple's multiple controversies appears to be the person who registered the server for Hillary Clinton's private email address at her upstate New York home.
Eric Hothem, a Washington stockbroker and the husband of a Democrat fundraiser and consultant, is reportedly the person who created the personal email server for Hillary Clinton to use during her tenure as secretary of state. The New York Times reported this week that Clinton exclusively used a private email account instead of a government email, an alleged violation of the Federal Records Act.
On Wednesday, the Associated Press reported that the private email server installed at the Clintons' Chappaqua home was traced to a man named Eric Hoteham, though the AP could not find anyone with that name in public records or other online databases, according to Politico.
After some investigation, it was uncovered that an Eric Hothem was an aide to Hillary Clinton during her time as first lady.
Hothem was involved in the 2001 controversy over the Clintons removal of furnishings from the White House when President Bill Clinton left office.
A White House usher told the Washington Post at the time that Hothem assured him the items belonged to the Clintons.
Ultimately, the Clintons returned several pieces of furniture to the White House and paid $86,000 for gifts they took with them, according to Politico.
