The Hillary Clinton email controversy continues as her camp announced on Sunday that the personal and private emails they deleted were all reviewed before they were discarded.

According to the spokesman of Clinton, Nick Merrill, there were around 30,000 emails related to her work and turned over to the State Department. He added that 32,000 were deleted but Clinton failed to mention in her press conference that all the deleted emails were carefully read by the team.

Due to this, the body investigating the issue questioned how Clinton's camp had decided that the emails were filed as private. Merrill shares that they had a fact sheet and methods on how to delete these messages but did not elaborate.

The recent revelation made other lawmakers all the more eager to have access over the deleted emails of Clinton.

Clinton, a possible frontrunner of the Democrats for the 2016 Presidential Race, has been facing the controversial issue since the investigation of the Benghazi incident began. Clinton's camp reportedly turned over 900 pages of emails on the Benghazi issue but the House of Benghazi Committee is not sure if these emails are the only ones covering the subject.

Republican Representative Trey Gowdy of South Carolina, the chairman of the House Benghazi Committee, said he has no interest in Clinton's personal emails. He is, however, more concerned of who gets to decide which is personal and which is public.

"And if it's a mixed-use email, and lots of the emails we get in life are both personal and work, I just can't trust her lawyers to make the determination that the public's getting everything they're entitled to," Gowdy said.

He adds that there are huge gaps in the emails they received. This includes the time when Clinton went to Libya but the trip were not reflected in the archived emails turned over to them.

The investigation into Clinton's private server continues and the former Secretary of State shares that this server contains a personal exchange of emails between her and her husband so it will remain private. But is still being contested whether or not the State Department will get access to the server via an independent neutral third party.
