** A “House Staffer” held on the the devastating IM’s for months before passing them off!
The Strata Sphere has the latest scoop on the Foley scandal.
** The innocuous emails were sent from a former page to a House Staffer on August 31, 2005, more than a year ago!… The IM’s were sent to someone working in the House of Representatives who held onto them for months before passing them off without notifying the FBI or House leadership!
AJ Strata has more on this devastating find!
The Leftist George Soros-funding Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) is not looking so good right now. More fingers are pointing in their direction. Even the Washington Post reports that on their weak arguments against the FBI this morning:
Law enforcement officials said the allegations by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) are without merit, and they stood by allegations that the group had refused to provide some information to the FBI.
CREW held a news conference Monday to announce that in July it had provided the FBI suspicious e-mails between Foley and a former House page. The group criticized the bureau for not taking more aggressive action and asked Justice Department Inspector General Glenn A. Fine to investigate the FBI’s handling of the case.
Law enforcement officials said then that the e-mails did not provide enough evidence of a possible crime to warrant a full investigation. In the e-mails, Foley praises the physical attributes of one page and asks another teenager for his picture.
In subsequent days, unidentified Justice and FBI officials told reporters that the e-mails provided by CREW were heavily redacted and that the group refused to provide unedited versions to the FBI. One law enforcement official — speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation — also told The Washington Post the FBI believed that CREW may have received the e-mails as early as April and that the group refused to tell the FBI how they were obtained.
Dan Reihl and Macsmind have more on the bumbling bunch at CREW.
Ace has the goods on the mystery blog.
Sarah emails this on the innocuous emails sent to Rep. Alexander’s offfice…
a big lib! This is not looking so good for the democrats about now:
The staffer that had hre emails was the staffer in Rep. Alexander’s office that the page emailed them to. ABC’s Blotter says the staffer was Danielle Savoy. Her name also shows up on ABC’s pdf’s of the emails, which I think is new. I don’t think her name showed before. So now this is verifiable.
