EXCERPT :
The job of U.S. attorney is a political appointment. The top man in any U.S. attorney's office comes and goes. The real continuity in the office rests in the hands of scores of often anonymous assistant U.S. attorneys working there. DiBiagio had a foot planted in both worlds. Before his appointment as U.S. attorney by the Bush administration, DiBiagio worked in the Maryland office as an assistant U.S. attorney from 1991 to 2000. So he was a longtime internal operative. He's a graduate of Dickinson College, in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and the University of Richmond, where he earned his law degree. From the earliest days since his elevation as U.S. Attorney in 2001, Republican DiBiagio emphasized prosecution of cases involving public corruption and white-collar crime. In a state historically dominated by Democrats, that means prosecuting Democrats. Early on, U.S. Attorney DiBiagio found himself at odds with the Baltimore office of the FBI, notably former Agent-in-Charge Gary Bald, who soon left to oversee FBI counterterrorism efforts. In 2002 DiBiagio wrote a memo scolding the Baltimore FBI field office for failing to investigate white-collar crime. Before long, DiBiagio launched a probe of the Democratically controlled Baltimore city council. He subpoenaed the financial records of every council member. In his sights, everyone understood, was Democratic Mayor Martin O'Malley. O'Malley was seen as Gov. Ehrlich's chief threat and rival. U.S. Attorney DiBiagio would soon reveal a penchant for writing embarrassingly ill-conceived and revealing letters, memos and e-mails, many of which were leaked to the press.

I thought they had decided this was a suicide ,,outlandish to think he stabbed himself like 50 times and then got in a ditch to die. But I think I read that.
BTTT
Bump
Crooked FBI agent(s) and/or dope dealers?
Things like that happened a lot during the clinton administration.
There was an individual that shot themselves in the wrong side tof the head, wrapped themself in a carpet, then drove himself to Ft. Marcy Park where he exited his vehicle, unrapped himself and walked over t another place and laid down.
Then there was the police officer in OK City who shot himself in his car and I believe that he slashed his wrists also but I am going from memory and can't be sure of that. He then exited his vehicle, locked the doors, and walked some distance, crawled under a barbwire fence and laid down.
I suppose that the point is that suicides happen under strange circumstances.
If bill clinton had stayed in power long enough, the average age would dropped to 45.
How long can the republic continue under these circumstances is what I ask in all sincerity.
joanie are you aware of what's contained, here?
Didn't the Luna incident strike close to *home*?
Follow the hyper-link if you've not heard a follow-up to that case & have at it.
As usual, wasn't really "a mystery".
...after all.
Nancy Pelosi grew up around corrupt Baltimore politics, so she’s knows all about the “culture of corruption”
