Former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, who served under President Bill Clinton, has died at the age of 70.
SNIP
Berger's legacy was marred, however, when he pleaded guilty in 2005 to removing highly classified documents from the National Archives in Washington the previous year. The inspector general of the National Archives said that a staff member had witnessed the former NSA adviser wrapping the classified documents around his socks and under his pants.
He was fined $50,000, sentenced to two years' probation and stripped of his security clearance for three years. Following a Justice Department investigation and subsequent congressional hearings, Berger voluntarily gave up his license to practice law in 2007.
"While I derived great satisfaction from years of practicing law, I have not done so for 15 years and do not envision returning to the profession," Berger said, according to a contemporaneous Associated Press report, "I am very sorry for what I did, and deeply apologize."

In a related story, Hillary Rodham Clinton is running for president.
The man who knew too much.
Finally.
Does Hillary have an alibi?
No comment...
In Clinton-speak, this is known as cleaning up loose ends.
Check his socks.
Was he under subpoena for anything? Could be Arkancide.
The fall-man for Slick Willy’s high crimes = Teflonistas!!!
Check his socks!
From the link....
“V sad start to day; just learned Sandy Berger passed away during the night,” Richard Haass, the president of the Council on Foreign Relations, tweeted Wednesday morning. “Good man & friend who served nation well as bill clinton’s NSA.”
Wonder if he died from natural cause, or had been ill. Doesn’t say.
I notice the tweet came from the prez of CFR. Interesting.
As you said, no mention of Sandy Burglar’s stealing 9/11 docs.
RIP
I wonder how much he got paid to stuff those documents down his pants and walk out and destroy them?
Of particular interest to know that these archived documents were SPECIAL! They had William Jefferson Clinton’s margin notes in them.
That is the reason the Convicted Criminal Berger stole them. IIRC, they weren’t found. He would not have risked so much if there wasn’t something incriminating to Bill Clinton.
RIP. Hope he has asked for forgiveness. May God forgive him his sins.
And now, if I may go into irreverent gear....Docs in Sox?
Soviet spy who found employment with kindred souls after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
RIP, pantload Berger.
He never did turn himself in for his like detector test....
