Whistle-blower Gets Busted!
The Associated Press reported, yesterday, that Federal agents conducted raids of the home and office of U.S. Special Counsel, Scott Bloch, the nation's top protector of government whistle-blowers.
They were searching for evidence that he retaliated against his own staff members!
Jeff Ruch, the Executive Director of Public Employees for Environmental Protection said, "It's like finding out that your town fire chief is an arsonist."
The raids took place in a downtown, District of Columbia office, and in suburban Virginia, where Mr. Block lived. In a creative touch, Mr. Block allegedly had "Geeks on Call" go to his office to wipe out his computer hard drive. Talk about nerve! He should have known that the staff he allegedly mistreated would dime him out!!

Oh snap! Actually, somewhere in my area a couple of years ago, they did arrest the fire chief for arson. :-)
You just never know about people who do a job and how they'll use their knowledge for themselves; can anyone remember the name Spitzer?
