If My Nose Was Running Money

Southern Culture at its Best

Hexes and Sexes

FBI was investigating Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR), and found that the deputy director of that office, Ginger Cruz, a self-described Wiccan, had been threatening to place hexes on employees if they co-operated with outsiders' evaluations of the agency. The Director of SIGIR, Stuart Bowen, who was a former aide to President Bush, commissioned a book telling the history of the SIGIR, and also claimed printing cost of the book to be millions of dollars. He was "dating on government time", had unexplained absences from work and did some cover ups on time sheets to hide the absences. Former employees accuse him of taking non-work related trips to Texas and France, but counting it as paid time.
