Can't Somebody Stop This? Citizen's Arrest!
"Jeb shredding state records?

By Joe Baker, Senior Editor
A source inside the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation told Insider magazine that Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has ordered the shredding of documents and public records, a clear violation of Florida law.
The department has oversight and approval of state gaming licensees, slot machines, dog and horse tracks, and jai-alai games.

The source, who asked to remain anonymous, said the governor also has brought in personnel from Texas to replace key members of his staff in Tallahassee. The Texans are overseeing the destruction of state documents, according to the source.

A source in the FBI confirmed that public records are being destroyed on orders of Jeb Bush. The source said the governor may have taken that action in response to the continuing criminal probe of Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff and the federal investigation of the 2001 gangland murder in Miami of Gus Boulis, owner of the Sun Cruz casino boat.

From the Feb. 1-7, 2006, issue"

SHREDDING? Can't someone in FL grab a lawyer & to try and stop this? Can't a FL lawyer file a suit for public destruction of property? Aren't they violating the public's property?

1. Maybe someone from Florida needs to file suit?
:shrug:

I can't believe that no one has stepped in.

Peace.

3. well, that will never get done
notice the line in the article says "a source in the FBI confirmed"--i don't see anything about the source in the FBI jumping up and trying to prevent anymore of it from happening.

blah
