FBI investigates theft at Democratic office (Former clinton Official Suspected)
Washington Times ^ | 11/12/04 | Jerry Seper

The U.S. attorney's office in Washington, along with the FBI, is investigating the suspected theft of $350,000 in checks from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, focusing on a bank account opened by a committee employee who once was a key Clinton administration official.
    Law-enforcement authorities said the missing checks — all but $10,000 of which have been recovered — were traced to a private bank account opened by Roger Chiang, the DSCC's former director of constituency outreach, who was fired from his post last month after the checks were first reported missing.

The committee's internal auditors first discovered in early October that the checks, mostly made out to "DSCC," were missing, authorities said, and immediately notified U.S. Capitol Police, who traced them to the Chiang account.

In December 2000, he was appointed by President Clinton as an adviser at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the highest-ranking Asian-American at the department, where he served as a key adviser to Secretary Andrew Cuomo.

Sandy Berger has been unemployed lately.. having money problems. Were those checks in his pants or was he just happy to see Albright.

When I heard it on Fox earlier today a corner of my brain went: Ah.... Clinton's old fundraiser strikes again. I suppose the Clintons' can never steal enough money, can they?

Awww come now, he was just being a true dedicated member of the democrat party. How would he know he was doing anything wrong, when everyone else does the same thing in the DNC?
