Were the people you assisted donors to your foundation? Unfortunately, I didn't have one.

Were any of these people convicted criminals?

Perhaps. I didn't check their police blotter. That said, I did interact with a number of labor bigwigs in DC who ended up being indicted or forced from office due to embezzlement.
The whole Clinton Foundation relationship is indeed shaky for a SoS. However, the 2 "smoking gun" emails didn't make a case for malfeasance IMO. They showed business as usual in both the Executive and Legislative branches. I saw such things every single day.
