LOS ALAMOS COPS BACK ON THE BEAT

LOS ALAMOS COPS BACK ON THE BEAT
Good news: Steven Doran and Glenn Walp -- the two Los Alamos National Laboratory investigators fired for digging too deep into the fraud and mismanagement -- have been hired back.
Struggling to hold on to their management of Los Alamos, the University of California agreed Friday to put Walp and Doran back on the payroll -- with back pay -- so the two can continue their inquiries into misspent government funds and missing Lab property.
Earlier in the day, members of the House Energy Committee told University of California President Richard Atkinson that if he didn't rehire Walp and Doran, it "will make it very difficult for this Committee to view seriously your statements that you intend to change the culture of secrecy at (Los Alamos)," the Albuquerque Journal reports.
