WASHINGTON - A drug raid on a Los Alamos scientist's home in New Mexico turned up what appeared to be classified documents taken from the nuclear weapons lab, the FBI said Tuesday. Police discovered the documents at the scientist's home while making an arrest in a methamphetamine investigation, according to an FBI official in Washington who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case.
The police alerted the FBI to the documents, prompting a federal search of the unidentified female scientist's home. The official would not describe the documents except to say that they appeared to contain classified material.
Asked about the raid, FBI special agent Bill Elwell in Albuquerque, N.M., confirmed that a search warrant was executed on Friday night, but he refused to discuss details.
"We do have an investigation with regard to the matter, but our standard is we do not discuss pending investigations," Elwell said.
A spokesman for the Los Alamos National Laboratory, in Los Alamos, N.M., declined to comment.

actually, we share it now with the Chinese. I've heard that we allow Chinese scientists to come and visit, which to me is an act of insanity.

Sometimes you just gotta put down the theoretical nuclear physics and get back to some good old bench chemistry just to keep it real.

Did Wen Ho Lee ever live up to his plea agreement?
I don't think so.
Lee was expected to help the FBI find out what happened to seven computer tapes he downloaded nuclear secrets onto. Lee says he destroyed the tapes but has no proof of that.
His best bet? Say that they were in Sandy Berger's shorts the last time he saw them. That should give law enforcement a long pause.

We need to shut down Los Alamos now. The security there is pitiful, and shows no sign of improving. Revoke the clearance for everyone and rebuild somewhere else.
