It should be a civil violation at best resulting in a fine and then only when the lie was to hide an actual crime. Flynn, the incoming National Security Adviser, appointed by the President, talking to the Russian Amb. was not a crime even under the Logan Act. We know it wasn't because they never charge him with that. Flynn's so called lie, did not impede an investigation. The FBI had a recording of what Flynn said to the Russian Amb and nothing of a criminal nature was discussed and the FBI knew that.
In Hillary's case, she lied and she lied about a crime she committed concerning the mis-handeling of classified documents. Did she have a "nefarious intent", I don't think she did, she just had paranoia of persons knowing her business. I still wouldn't put her in jail.
