The mother of State Department official Sean Smith, who was killed during the Sept. 11, 2012 attacks on the Benghazi consulate, could not bear to sit through the film 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi at the premiere Wednesday night in Dallas.
Pat Smith told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly on Wednesday that she left the movie sobbing. “I left as soon as Sean came on screen, or the person who portrayed him. I couldn’t handle it,” the mother said.
“Hillary is a liar! I know what she told me,” she added.
Smith has stated in the past that Clinton told her the attacks were sparked by an anti-Islam video.
As reported by Western Journalism, Smith appeared on Fox News following former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s testimony before the House Select Committee on Benghazi in October. She angrily told host Martha MacCallum, “She promised me, when the caskets came in to Washington D.C., she promised me to my face that she would call and tell me what happened, because I don’t know exactly what happened.”Now, over three years later, the mother is still waiting for answers regarding the attack on the American consulate that killed her son Sean, a 34-year-old information management officer with the Foreign Service.
MacCallum referenced Clinton’s outrage while testifying before a Senate committee investigating the attacks in 2013, when the former secretary of state exclaimed, “The fact is we have four dead Americans.Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they’d go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make?!”
“It makes a lot of difference. It was my son that got killed and she never told me why,” Smith told the Fox News host.“Why did she kill them then? Why did she stop the security guards from going in there? [The guards] told me personally that if they would have been allowed to go … And they were told to stand down, if they allowed them to go, my son would be alive. I want Hillary to tell me why this is not so!” Smith demanded.
The film 13 Hours opens nationwide this Friday, Jan. 15.
