WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Last week, State Department officials said they had hit a "dead end" in their investigation.
"Given the secretary's strong interest, given Congress' strong interest and given the media's strong interest, we've decided to continue to look at that," Toner told reporters on Wednesday. "No laws were broken but we are trying to get to the bottom of what happened."
However, Toner admitted, "They only interviewed one person. They didn't look at or for emails. They didn't check phone records… We've looked at those who were in leadership positions at the time who… might have been aware of what happened. It's probably [one of] four or five people.
Toner confirmed that according to the technician who wiped the video tape of the briefing, the call to edit it was made within the State Department’s Public Affairs office.
