This Louis Freeh: (from the NY Times of all places)

Freeh Was Spared Censure For Handling of Ruby Ridge
By DAVID JOHNSTON
Published: August 06, 2001

An internal Justice Department inquiry recommended that Louis J. Freeh, the former F.B.I. director, and three other bureau officials be censured for managerial failures during follow-up investigations of the deadly standoff at Ruby Ridge in Idaho in 1992, but Justice Department officials rejected any disciplinary action, government lawyers said today.

The recommendation to reprimand Mr. Freeh with a letter of censure, the mildest form of administrative punishment at the Federal Bureau of Investigation, was turned down in early January by Stephen R. Colgate, at the time the Justice Department’s chief administrative officer responsible for reviewing disciplinary actions.

Typically, letters of censure issued to F.B.I. agents are not publicly disclosed but are inserted into their personnel files.

Mr. Colgate, who has since left the government, said in an interview that he had taken no action because he did not believe it was justified. He said two other senior officials who reviewed the matter agreed with his position while one official disagreed. The disciplinary recommendation involving Mr. Freeh was first reported today by The Washington Post.

But some around here will take as Gospel his conclusions and assumptions as aided and abetted by the lamestream media.

ANd PSU WAS conservative until Spanier arrived on the scene - I know, I was there.

Yep.. That Louis Freeh.

A leftist hack, hired by a leftist Board of Trustees, comes to a conclusion based on virtually no new-evidence to destroy a conservative Republican’s reputation, and the leftist media runs with it and conservatives on Free Republic swallow everything they are being told by these liberals: hook, line, and sinker.

It’s fascinating and disappointing.
