“It’s clear to me that it was somebody looking for information and not money. My most high-profile case right now is the Aurelia Fedenisn case, and I can’t think of any other case where someone would go to these great lengths to get our information.”

E.HOWARD HUNT WAS UNAVAILABLE FOR COMMENT: Cameras Catch Mystery Break-In at Whistleblower’s Law Firm.
The offices of a Dallas law firm representing a high-profile State Department whistleblower were broken into last weekend. Burglars stole three computers and broke into the firm’s file cabinets. But silver bars, video equipment and other valuables were left untouched, according to local Fox affiliate KDFW, which aired security camera footage of the suspected burglars entering and leaving the offices around the time of the incident.
The firm Schulman & Mathias represents Aurelia Fedenisn, a former investigator at the State Department’s Office of the Inspector General. In recent weeks, she raised a slew of explosive allegations against the department and its contractors ranging from illicit drug use, soliciting sexual favors from minors and prostitutes and sexual harassment. . . . Last month, her lawyers told The Cable that the department tried to intimidate her into silence. “They had law enforcement officers camp out in front of her house, harass her children and attempt to incriminate herself,” claimed Schulman.
I hope the law firm salted its hard drives with phony files designed to give State Department officials heartburn.

…“Any allegation that the Department of State authorized someone to break into Mr. Schulman’s law firm is false and baseless,” spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
Keep in mind that’s coming from the same person who recently denied John Kerry was on a boat in Nantucket, so feel free to draw your own conclusion on the veracity of that statement…
