It's OK with me, if the "missing" files are classified "Confidential" or "Secret".

If any FBI agents have the proper clearance level,and a reason to research, they can review any original documents/files classified under Top Secret level without physically signing it out, as long as the physical documents and the information it contains remains in a secure location.

Does the FBI have to come to a screeching halt every time somebody files a FOIA based request?
Classified information has a rigid declassification time schedule,IOW the FOI act.
It does not get declassified before it's time, just because a reporter or the ACLU wants to peruse it right now.
LOL! BTW, it's nearing the time for me to file for some of those FOIA declassified documents myself. There is hope that Carter won't die before he is completely exposed as an evil, traitorous SOB, as opposed to the more charitable opinion that he is merely ignorant and incompetent but well intentioned.

Image hosted by Photobucket.com i couldn't care less about the foia... it's the ADMITTED amount of files MISSING because of absolutely NO document control that bothers me.

"There is no physical slip of paper on the shelf which indicates that the file has been charged out to a particular FBI employee, so therefore there is no way of knowing where the file may actually be,"

that is a TOTALLY unacceptable system.

what if it's people under investigation that had the files disappeared??? who's to know since there NO SIGN OUT procedure for them!!!
