Two paths that I see can being taken.
1) The House votes to impeach her based on the crime she committed,
2) The FBI investigates her and provides enough evidence for the DOJ to indict her.
There's also a third option: nothing at all happens.
This will almost certainly be the outcome.
EDIT: Spelling and this update:
states:
(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
(b) Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. As used in this subsection, the term “office” does not include the office held by any person as a retired officer of the Armed Forces of the Unites States.
Is a copy of a deposited record still a record?
Technically it's not a copy. It was signed by the president which - I am pretty sure - makes it a formal document.
So you can never rip up an autograph from the president? The law says it needs to be a deposited record
Hey, wow. This is pretty funny!
