TITLE: BLM law enforcement director and Dan Love mentor, William Woody, ousted in wake of numerous allegations
Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Office of Law Enforcement Services (OLES) director William Woody seems to have followed a path similar to that of his corrupt protege, Dan Love. Woody has been under investigation for numerous apparent abuses of power and mishandling of government funds since the time he retook the position in 2017. According to our source, on Thursday, June 13, Director Woody’s gun and badge were stripped from him and he was escorted out of the Department of the Interior headquarters in Washington D.C..
Woody was hired by the BLM in 2003 at which time he apparently mentored Dan Love, and was then moved to Fish & Wildlife Service where he worked for several years and, according to our source, was pushed out of that agency amid allegations of lavish travel spending and arbitrary pay hikes of all agents under his supervision. In 2017 Woody was reassigned back to BLM to head its division of law enforcement.
Woody’s infamous protege, Dan Love, was the agent behind the bungled Bundy Ranch raid in 2014 and the 2009 antiquities sting, Operation Cerberus, which ended in the deaths of three men in southern Utah. With countless accusations and overwhelming evidence of corruption, overreach, racism, and bullying, in 2017 Dan Love was removed from his position as BLM OLES director for Utah and Nevada. According to an informant within the agency, Love was given a medical/mental health retirement with full federal benefits.

Woot!
Thanks for the ping. Great news!
Birds of a feather. Good riddance!
No, these are thugs with a gun and a badge harassing farmers and ranchers in the western states.
WTH is wrong with these people???
Dan Love was one over the top dude that’s for sure and how that impacted the whole Bunkerville and Oregon cases is worth millions of words of investigative journalism.
Mr. Woody figures in the Love matter prominently.
