Not news: Air Force scientist persuades one of his contractors to hire a woman he knows.
Also not news: contractor has some concerns about his new hire, like her inability to “use basic word processing and document creation software” and “formulate coherent inter-office emails”.
News: she was actually a hooker.
News: not only was she involved professionally with the scientist, but she was also plying her trade with other scientists at Wright-Patterson AFB.
News: when the contractor told the scientist this was unethical, the scientist “stated he would come to Building 5 with one of his many guns to ‘end it all’”.
News:
When AFOSI investigators raided [the scientist’s] office, they seized electronic devices along with a box of condoms, women’s underwear and an empty bottle of Viagra.
A forensic review of his phone found texts between [the scientist] and 27 sex workers in different cities, many of whom were “foreign nationals from countries considered US National Security concerns,” the warrant said.
News: the scientist passed away in September of last year from “unspecified causes”.
The warrant, unsealed on Monday in the US District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, seeks access to [the scientist’s] and the woman’s email accounts for evidence of false, fictitious, or fraudulent claims, embezzlement/misuse of government property, extortion of officers or employees of the United States, ethnic intimidation, and aggravated menacing, the Daily Beast reported.
She is reportedly being investigated on charges of prostitution near military and naval establishments, and false, fictitious, or fraudulent claims.
That’s quite a catalog of crimes, some of which I’m unfamiliar with. “ethnic intimidation”? “aggravated menacing”? Is there non-aggravated menacing?
This guys big mistake was that he didn’t have any U.S. Senate aspirations. If he had, then sleeping with foreign spies would not have hurt his chances, but rather helped them. I wonder if her name was Fang?
