Intern admits thefts from U.S. archives

The man is a history major with access to the US Archives for gossakes!

Greed often overides common sense in many people.  ::)

I hope I did undestand it correct,..THAT GUY IS SUCH AND IDIOT!! the FBI should put him a a center for retads instead of jail

haha what an eejit. because no one will notice a few official state documents on eBay

I was civil war stuff...what's so supersecret about it?

The problem is not that it's secret.  This person was trusted with some irreplacable items, items that were part of our heritage, and sold them on eBay...  ::)

The stolen Civil War-era documents included telegrams concerning the troops' weaponry, the War Department's announcement of Lincoln's death sent to soldiers, and a letter from famed cavalryman James Ewell Brown Stuart, prosecutors said.

Perhaps it made mention of the Unions use of alien technology, or experimental aircraft (that's right, civil war aircraft!) built with alien technology recovered from the other Roswell in West Virginia in 1845 and that Lincoln was assassinated to cover it up!  :o

The truth is out there....
*whistles X-Files theme*

Let's not forget Sandy Berger, an ex-National Security Advisor was convicted for mishandling classified documents.

I doubt that.

I bet my nonexistant virginity that there are photocopies of those buried in some other achives.

Alas no matter how good your security vetting sooner or later a dork slips past vetting In my old job we called them officers (sorry Charlie)

There are myriad photocopies of the Declaration of Independence,etc... the originals are irreplaceable as objects.

... the originals are irreplaceable as objects.

As long as you don't tell and you have a nearly perfect copy...

Someone is going to notice someday.

How stupid can I get?

Dunno, as I have yet to reach my maximum potential in that field.  ;D
