The son and daughter-in-law of State Department Inspector General Howard J. Krongard have asked a judge to issue a restraining order forcing him to stop sending "unprofessional and highly offensive" e-mails that suggested the family would be put "on the street" if they lost a lawsuit Krongard has filed against them, according to documents filed last week in a New Jersey court.
The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is investigating whether Krongard, a lawyer who was general counsel of Deloitte and Touche, thwarted politically embarrassing inquiries into contractor fraud and treated subordinates poorly.
A letter to Krongard last week from the committee's chairman, Henry A. Waxman (D-Calif.), accused Krongard of creating a "dysfunctional office environment in which you routinely berate and belittle personnel, show contempt for the abilities of career government professionals and cause the staff to fear coming to work." The letter said high personnel turnover has left the office with many senior-level vacancies and only seven of 27 investigator positions filled.
Krongard filed suit last year against his son, Kenneth W. Krongard, and his daughter-in-law, Kristin, over a home loan that he said they had defaulted on. They paid back the full loan -- then totaling about $320,000 -- within weeks of his suit being filed.
But Krongard has demanded hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional interest and penalties and a full repayment of his legal fees. One of the exhibits on file in the case show that Krongard has claimed he has already been billed nearly $114,000 in legal fees.

As you probably know, but perhaps others don’t, is that Buzzy resigned from the CIA shortly after Porter Goss took over.
I think this Krongard needs a full medical work up looking for brain disease or degeneration that results in combative personality changes.
(Unless he’s been an a**hole all his life).
Ken Krongard has several music production/talent companies. He got his start in the music biz as a tour accountant for Kiss. He later worked for Clive Davis as Head of A&R for Arista Records. He “discovered” and signed Avril Levigne.
Krongard was unceremoniously kicked to the curb when Davis sold Arista - could have something to do with borrowing the money.
Kristin(nee Simons) comes from a good family. Other than missing a part of her conscience, she is a good gal.
Small world.
