Employee who sent false alert in Hawaii not cooperating with FCC probe, official says
The Hill ^ | 01/25/2018 | Max Greenwood

The employee responsible for sending a false mobile alert across Hawaii warning of an incoming ballistic missile is not cooperating with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) investigations looking into the matter, an FCC official said Thursday, according to media reports.

"We are quite pleased with the level of cooperation we have received from the leadership of the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency thus far," Fowlkes said, according to Axios.

"We are disappointed, however, that one key employee, the person who transmitted the false alert, is refusing to cooperate with our investigation," she added. "We hope that person will reconsider."

Uhhhh... because they "hope" that this person will "reconsider.">p> Hope + no steps taken to CAUSE reconsideration = wishful thinking.

What steps are they taking to require this person to cooperate?

("Waving hand in the air") I'd suggest --- how 'bout this --- criminal charges?

Would that be OK?

Hit the guy with Terrorism charges. Threaten to send him to Gitmo. Maybe then he will talk.

After they locked up that film maker after Benghazi, after Martha Stewart, and many others, nobody in their right mind should cooperate with any fed.

Exactly. Once people figure this out the feral government's persecutor's jobs become a lot more difficult. I wouldn't voluntarily give the FBI my hat size.

The MF'er ought to be thrown in jail...and never see daylight again...IF...this was done on purpose.

The bigger problem I have is...why no fail safes? Why no two people, or three people to go thru to call this alert???

This ain't 1941...this is 2018..!!!

Especially if they’ve done something wrong, possibly illegal, possibly a felony subject to prison time.

It’s another Globalist false flag or fear porn testing the waters.

Japan had their own fake missle test alert three days after Hawaii...

Get woke Christian Conservatives: you are the Globalists’ target

“So why is that person still employed?”

Because that person has a government job.

LOL, quibbling over phraseology while Globalists are making mockery of us while also “making merchandise” off their fear porn.

Get woke to the Uniparty evil or get out of the way...

The Moslim police clown who shot and killed the Aussie refused to cooperate and nothing happened to him either.

I wonder what would happen to me if I killed someone, and refused to cooperate?

Why isn’t the guy talking? Fear of prosecution? That would sure be a concern of mine if it were me. Not that keeping quiet would prevent that if it was going to happen but talking sure is not going to help his case.
