Good!!! I hope they all go to jail. I felt the same way about the guy who snooped in Sarah’s records. We can’t have it one way for one person and not the other. Everyone should stop getting into people’s records on the computer. It is not that difficult.

IOWA CITY – Sandra Teague, 54, Iowa City, had worked for Vangent for 10 years when she says she was walked out of the building and dismissed from her job.
“The company never told me the reason I was dismissed for,” said Teague.
Wednesday, she found out when we called to tell her a Grand Jury had returned an indictment against her and several former co-workers for allegedly back in 2008, trying to look up the federal student loan records of Barack Obama. Obama was a presidential candidate at the time.
Teague is one of nine people named in the indictment. She says she used to work with at least four of those named. She did not recognize the names of the others.
“I don’t know what the others did, but I know that I did not do it,” said Teague.
Teague said she worked in a department at Vangent where they helped people with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, FAFSA.
“All of it was a shock to begin with, because I knew I had not done that,” said Teague. “I knew that something had occurred and that there was a breach of security.”
Teague said in order to do their job, they had different ID numbers for each database they had to look up. She said they even had different ID numbers for different versions of the same database, and even on different systems. She said those ID numbers would change every 30 days.
“I had seven different numbers, and I couldn’t remember them all, all the time,” said Teague.
She said she wrote them on a sticky-note and attached that to the inside of her desk drawer.
“It was assumed that the building had better controlled access, but it turns out it wasn’t,” said Teague.
Teague said she was questioned by special agents for the Department of Education, Office of Inspector General. Teague said after that interview, the agent suggested a better place to keep her ID numbers. It was at that time Teague thought the matter was resolved.
Teague said what gave her the most relief was when that agent told her she wasn’t checked into the building when Vangent’s computers say Obama’s records were accessed.
Teague said she only found out Obama had federal student loans after someone causally mentioned it at a department meeting.
Teague said she was planning her own wedding at the time of the alleged incidents and didn’t have any reason to look up Obama’s records, ““I didn’t even pay attention to the election, I didn’t have time.”
Andrew Lage, 54, is also named in the indictment. An attorney for Lage said his client had no comment.
We couldn’t find any contact numbers for Vangent company officials late Wednesday night.

Nine people are accused of accessing the student loan records of Barack Obama, when he was a candidate for president, president-elect and president.
The indictments were handed up in U.S. District Court, Davenport, and unsealed Thursday. The nine people worked at a Department of Education contractor in Coralville, Iowa.

Catherine Grant, a spokeswoman with the U.S. Department of Education, said officials can’t comment or offer more details about ongoing investigations, which this case is. She said once investigations are completed, officials will provide more information. She didn’t know when that might be.
Update at 11:30 a.m. Thursday by Diane Heldt
In a follow-up e-mail, Vangent spokeswoman Eileen Cassidy Rivera said the investigation was initiated by the U.S. Department of Education, and Vangent fully cooperated with the investigation. Rivera said Vangent officials do not believe the violation of company security policies was politically motivated.
Update 11:24 a.m. Thursday by Trish Mehaffey
I’ve called Lisa Torney and Mercedes Costoyas and left messages for comments.
I sent emails to Andrew Lage, Anna Rhodes. I’ve looked for others on Facebook but they weren’t listed.
UPDATE at 11:10 a.m. Thursday by Diane Heldt
A Vangent company spokeswoman based in Arlington, Va., in a statement today said the nine employees, not Vangent, were the subject of the investigation.
The statement from Eileen Cassidy Rivera, vice president of communications and investor relations, said “An investigation identified a number of Vangent employees, among others, who inappropriately accessed student loan records. The Vangent employees violated Vangent’s security policies and were promptly terminated from the company in June 2009. Vangent was not the subject of the investigation.”
Voting records from the Johnson County Auditor’s office show that four of those indicted are registered as Democrats, and two are registered as Republicans. Three of those indicted — Anna C. Rhodes, 32; Mercedes Costoyas, 53; and Sandra Teague, 54 – were not registered to vote in Johnson County.
The six who were registered all voted in the 2008 general election. Those registered as Democrats are: John P. Phommivong, 29; Patrick E. Roan, 51; Andrew J. Lage, 54; and Julie L. Kline, 38, who was registered in Cedar County. The two registered as Republicans are Lisa L. Torney, 49, and Gary N. Grenell, 58.
