FBI Employees Sexting, Sending Porn, Bugging Co-Workers Offices
TAMMY BRUCE
Oh, and they’re buying sex in massage parlors and lying about stuff, too. This must make the Secret Service feel less lonely. I’m wondering, maybe we should ban guns–for all federal employees.
FBI battling ‘rash of sexting’ among its employees
To deter misconduct, the FBI sends its employees reports that detail sexting and other transgressions by FBI employees.
It sounds like the plot of a bad movie: bugging your boss’ office. Sending naked photos around to co-workers. Sexting in the office. Paying for sex in a massage parlor.
But it all happened in the federal agency whose motto is “fidelity, bravery, integrity” — the FBI.
These lurid details are outlined in confidential internal disciplinary reports obtained by CNN that were issued to FBI employees as a way to deter misconduct.
The FBI hopes these quarterly reports will stem what its assistant director called a “rash of sexting cases” involving employees who are using their government-issued devices to send lurid texts and nude photos.
“We’re hoping (that) getting the message out in the quarterlies is going to teach people, as well as their supervisors … you can’t do this stuff,” FBI assistant director Candice Will told CNN this week. “When you are given an FBI BlackBerry, it’s for official use. It’s not to text the woman in another office who you found attractive or to send a picture of yourself in a state of undress. That is not why we provide you an FBI BlackBerry.”
While the vast majority of the FBI’s 36,000 employees act professionally, the disciplinary reports issued by the agency’s Office of Professional Responsibility show serious misconduct has continued for years.
From 2010 to 2012, the FBI disciplined 1,045 employees for a variety of violations, according to the agency. Eighty-five were fired.

Seems the FBI needs another mean, no nonsense cross dresser to straighten these guys out.
J. Edgar, where are you when we need you?

I’m willing to bet this happens 10 to 1 more often in government jobs, federal, state, local, than private industry. Which is but one reason the term ‘public servant’ isn’t used anymore.
I disdain all government workers. They’re not all lazy, thieving leaches so I, as an open minded non judgmental non-partisan hack, give special dispensation to those that aren’t on an individual, one on one basis.

FBI and DHS are just the tip of the iceberg. The unelected bureaucratic behemoth that is our actual government is shot through with childish, amoral pagans who have no limits and answer only to tenured superiors and elected officials who are just like them.

Texting spies from DC
Try to get their happy endings
Little punks from Georgetown
Dream of digital fellation
And if you want these kind of dreams
It’s Quanticopulation
It’s the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
It’s understood that Washington
sells Quanticopulation

J.Edgar Hoover was a good American. The libtards attacked him only after he was dead. He was the only Government Official to object to the internment of Japanese during WW2.Hoover would not put up with this shit.

If J.Edgar Hoover were around today, Obama, and a whole bunch of other communists would be dead in the water. Sunk.

Oh, geez! I was scrolling down the comments and thought the title said, “…buggering Co-Workers…”. I see now it says “bugging”. That’s a relief!
