Baldwin was charged with first-degree attempted burglary and destruction of property in an incident from April of this year. Following the incident, Baldwin was put on leave and his security clearance suspended.

Where else but the Obamanation could a felon remain on the government payroll?

MY take is: the burglary was a "Chicago Plumber" job that went south, he couldn't stay loyal to the regime, so another Plumber was assigned to stop the leak.

Baldwin’s criminal case in D.C. Superior Court remained open – and a hearing in the case was held hours before Baldwin’s death, according to court records. A non-jury trial was scheduled to begin in February.
