Attorney General In Aspen, Answers Questions About Bill Clinton

ASPEN, Colo. (CBS4)- Attorney General Loretta Lynch was in Aspen on Friday where she addressed her meeting with former President Bill Clinton.

Lynch talked with Clinton aboard her government plane in Phoenix. She said it was all small talk but some call it a conflict of interest.

Lynch's office is overseeing the investigation of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server.

In Aspen, Lynch said she will not make the final decision on any possible charges.

"The final determination as to how to proceed will be contained within the recommendations in the report in whatever format the team puts it together," said Lynch.

Lynch said she will still be briefed after the investigation.

Some Republicans have called for her to recuse herself from the process.
