Once again, we’re left with more questions than answers.
James Comey Congressional Hearing Hillary   

FBI Director James Comey has continued to face criticism over his bureau’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email, including the numerous immunity deals given to her aides. Well, it turns out, the FBI didn’t give immunity to Cheryl Mills, a longtime aide:

    “Who authorized granting Cheryl Mills immunity?” Rep. John Sensenbrenner asked.

    “It’s a decision made by the Department of Justice, I don’t know at what level inside,” Comey responded. “In our investigations, any kind of immunity comes from the prosecutors, not the investigators.”

The FBI doesn’t hand out immunity deals:

That's true, but it is pretty rare for the prosecutors to grant immunity unless it is requested by law enforcement pursuant to an investigation.

Would that be true if the immunity came from either Looowretta Lynch or Imam Obama?

I don't think investigators should be making recommendations at any level on plea deals. It should all fall under the purview of the judicial branch. Defense and prosecution.
