Benghazi Committee Gets Thousands of Documents Months Late

State Department officials gave the House Select Committee on Benghazi roughly 3,900 pages of new documents last week, some of which lawmakers had asked for last year through requests that the agency then ignored for months.

The new emails came from Ambassador Chris Stevens, who was killed in the 2012 terror attack, and Patrick Kennedy, the State Department's undersecretary for management and its highest records official.

Although the select committee began asking for copies of Kennedy's emails in Nov. 2014, lawmakers did not start receiving them until this month. Kennedy remains in his position at the State Department.

Investigators had reviewed a small number of Kennedy's emails that were included among unrelated batches of records, but last month marked the first time the State Department began delivering the emails of its top records official.
