The parents of two Americans killed in a 2012 attack in the Libyan city of Benghazi have sued Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

Patricia Smith and Charles Woods, parents of Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods, filed a lawsuit against Mrs Clinton for wrongful death and defamation.

The suit claims the former secretary of state's use of a private email server contributed to their sons' death.

The parents also accuse her of defaming them in statements to the media.

Islamic militants attacked a US diplomatic compound in 2012 and killed four Americans, including ambassador Chris Stevens, while Mrs Clinton was secretary of state.

Though a House Republicans committee cleared Mrs Clinton of any wrongdoing earlier this year, the issue has dogged her presidential campaign.

The suit was filed on behalf of the parents by the conservative group Freedom Watch.

Shameless politics from the scumbag right.

Yup. It is a publicity stunt to counter the real lawsuit against Donald Trump for defrauding people out of tens of thousands of actual dollars.

Ugggggg, I can't really judge a parent for wanting to do such, but considering that far more outposts under Bush were attacked and civilians and military died, this seems to be selective on their part. If any blame is to be made, it would be the GOP budget cuts to protect them. That has been the 36 year plan by them. Create a needless problem, cut funding, then blame the other side for the conditions you set.
