Fishing?

2006-05-26 16:34:03.658344+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Interesting back and forth between the Mayor of Portland, Oregon, and the FBI. Mayor Tom Porter's open letter to the community describes a Special Agent approaching a City employee:

He asked if she knew any City Council members. He asked if she would be willing to pass information to him relating to people who work for the City of Portland. He said that while he had duties in other areas, the agency was always interested in information relating to white collar crime and other things.

Which he interprets as trolling that perhaps goes a little bit beyond the norm. The FBI has a response.
