Thanks, I actually remember reading that the FBI hadn't talked with him but given no actual authority is going on the record, I am suspicious of most everything I read on this.
Out of curiosity, what is your take on why Berger thought he could remove and lose documents without consequence? I can't get past this, regardless of what he was after or how critical it was, he had to know he was going to get caught.
This is only a guess, but years of getting away with all they've always gotten away with? Arrogance, cavalier carelessness, and maybe knowing some of the employees and thinking they (I'm tying Berger to Clinton and I'm sure he invoked his name when trying to talk his way out when confronted) could be schmoozed?
I just remember that security issues during the Clinton administration were very lax indeed.
