Paula Broadwell's Emails Revealed
2012-11-13
"No, 'I'll kill you' or 'I'll burn your house down,'" the source says. "It doesn't seem really that bad."

The squad was not even sure the case was worth pursuing, the source says.

"What does this mean? There's no threat there. This is against the law?" the agents asked themselves by the source's account.

At most the messages were harassing. The cyber squad had to consult the statute books in its effort to determine whether there was adequate legal cause to open a case.

"It was a close call," the source says.

What tipped it may have been Kelley's friendship with the agent. The squad opened a case, though with no expectation it would turn into anything significant.

"They weren't seeing this as the crime of the century," the source says.
