Study. Lets say each one of them were making 20,000 a year more in income, which is quite plausible. We are talking about 400 billion a year in lost wages. Numbers like that made some economic analysts argue that underemployment may be every bit as damaging to the economy as unemployment. And Kellock Irvin is caught in the middle of it all. For now he takes freelance jobs as a photographer and parttime work with moving companies. But that can only support me so long before i need to head home. He might be the next one moving back home. Tom foreman, cnn, washington. That does it for this edition of 306. Thanks for watching. Erin Burnett Outfront starts now. Outfront next, were just eight days away from forced spending cuts that have been called deep and dangerous. So why is all were hearing is blame . And as the world gets ready for a new pope, is the church using a cemetery to hide money from Abuse Victims . And new information about the body found inside a hotel water tower. We have the video that that hotel does not want you to see. Lets go outfront. Good evening, everyone. Im erin burnett. Outfront tonight, hurting the poor because washington has no courage. Again today, all we heard was blame when it comes to the forced spending cuts to take effect in eight days. President obama made some talk radio appearances. Whether or not we can move republicans at this point to do the right thing is what were still trying to gauge. Now, hes called the cuts severe and brutal. House speaker john boehner, guess what, completely agrees with that. Hes called them deep and dangerous, but theyre not doing anything about it. Heres the thing about the cuts. Theyre going to hurt some people that nobody wants to hurt. People already in pain, more than 4 million homebound and disabled seniors may have to go without dinner this year because of cuts to meals on wheels programs in the forced cuts. 70,000 children from lower income families will not be able to enroll in preschools and Day Care Centers because of the forced spending cuts. The owners of about 10,000 homes and Small Businesses destroyed by Hurricane Sandy wont get the money needed for repair and recovery. Now, there are all kinds of things in the forced cuts, some of which you may agree with, but some of which all of us would find offensive. We can cut the amount of money required here, many times over, frankly, from our budget without hurting poor people, though. As doug hoelts eiken points out, the sequester is an 85 billion cut in a 3. 6 trillion annual budget in a 16 trillion economy. Thats a really, really tiny slice of the thanksgiving pie, people. There is no need to cut from the vulnerable when it should be easy to cut the amount of money were talking about from other places. So why is all we hear, the republicans wont do this, the democrats wont do that . Danielle altman is an economics professor at ncu. Daniel, one thing to acknowledge here, finding 85 billion should be no problem. 85 billion is a really small chunk of the change we actually need to find. So even if you cut from the right places, if you cut the right amount, it would hurt people, and i think we have to be honest about that, but the cuts were talking about right now impact a lot of people, but brutal and dangerous for the economy . Well, the thick is this. That its 85 billion until the end of this year, but then we have these cuts maintained, and enlarged in some cases, Going Forward over the next seven years. So weve got almost 1 trillion in cuts. So if the sequester goes forward but over that tenyear period, you have to multiply that times ten too. But expectations of future spending and Economic Activity and consumption. And thats why they could have an effect, and why the markets are probably a little bit worried about them. But, still but brutal, dangerous . I think they will be for some people, as you pointed out. Yes. But not necessarily for the economy as a whole. And i agree wholeheartedly that we should be able to do a better job of this. The fact that politicians havent thought at all about the economic effects of the cuts themselves, especially on vulnerable people, is embarrassing. And thats where john boehner and the president agree. Those cuts on vulnerable people, no ones going to say they want that, and if they do, they dont have a heart. But what i dont understand is why all theyre doing is blaming each other and no ones coming out, again, with a plan. This is why we created the sequester deal in the first place. Because back then, there was no ability to agree on how do you prioritize cuts . So when you look at defense cuts, i believe its an across the board, its like 9. 5 across the Board Program plan activity, with domestic discretionary spending, its a little over 8 . Now, you might be thinking, well, some programs you should be able to zero out completely. Some programs should probably grow a little bit. If you could do that in a coherent way, the problem is they couldnt agree on that. Thats why the on thing they could agree to are were these incredibly crude, acrosstheboard cuts. And thats the root of the problem. You cant get that basic agreement. We got a basic agreement with a cliff deal to say, well delay it to march. But by delay it to march, you now squeeze in all of those cuts into a few months, rather than over the whole 12month budget cycle. Right. Now, daniel, let me ask you this. The American People want action on this. Theyre smarter than the people in washington. 70 say deficit legislation is essential. And that is more than the number of people who say that immigration matters or gun control matters. Even though if you think about the airwaves and what people in washington talk about, you wouldnt think that. Thats what the American People think. Why doesnt washington get it . The people want them to deal with this . Yes, i think that they understand that people want them to deal with it, but its going to be easier for them to say is that these cuts were forced on me and it wasnt my fault and keep the blame passing from side to side than it will be to say, i actually signed is up to cuts on a program in my district, or i forced somebody else to take that. Now its anonymous and no one has to take responsibility for any individual cut. Riehan, why cant the president be that person . Hes in the perfect position. He could come out and say, i want balanced approach, but theres going to be a lot of o pain with a lot of people to deal with this debt problem and ill be the one who has the courage to tell you. Why wont he do it . The president has, in my view, very weak incentives to make a deal with his opposition right now. He believes he actually gains. So when youre looking at the question of prioritization, take, for example, the park service, theyre cutting their plans and activities by this crude across the board amount. If they cut really popular, highly visible things, and he says, well, gosh, thats not my fault, thats someone elses fault, thats potentially a very shrewd move for him. While on the side of congressional republicans, if we just accept whatever deal he forces us to accept, well set a bad precedent in terms of whos going to make those decisions regarding prioritization and our longterm priorities. Its a game of chicken. I get what youre saying, but when he uses the word shrewd, shrewd politics, thats what its all about. Why cant he say, i cant care about being shrewd and i dont care if you like me, im trying to do the right thing for the future of this country. Hes got a power base hes consolidated over the past four years and he owes things to people in washington. And some of them might feel like theyve been hung out to dry if he has real talk on this topic. So a politician is never going to perfectly represent what would be perfectly ben official for the economy. They always have political vested interests. So, what, democracy is going to end up putting us in the gutter, because all we do is make promises to constituents to run for office and then hope someone down the line will have to pay for them and it wont be our country when it crashes . Its a very deep issue i know thats a negative, but that well, look, the fundamental thing about our political system is, you know, you need a really big level of public consensus to get things done and we just dont have a lot of public consensus. Yeah, but what were also missing is a public focused on a long time horizon, you know, longer than our politicians, and saying, well reward you for making sacrifices today if they benefit us in the longterm. We dont do that. We reward them for giving us stuff today. Thats right. Well, maybe the public saying they want this done is the public saying, look, we get its going to be pain, you stupid people down there. We are ready. All right, thanks to both of you. We appreciate it. Outfront next, money meant for sex Abuse Victims being hidden by members of the Catholic Church, some of it in cemeteries.

As the church prepares to usher in a new era with a new pope, the sex abuse scandal lingers. There are allegations tonight that the church hid money that was meant for Abuse Victims, hid the money, and some say the most powerful catholic in the entire country is the one denying justice. Ted rowlands is outfront with the investigation. Truth. It is the fundamental ingredient for human life. Reporter during a weekday morning life at holy name of jesus in sheboygan, wisconsin, father jim connell uses part of his sermon to discuss the catholic clergy sex abuse scandal. What actually happened . You know, who knew what . When did they know it . What did they do with the information . Reporter father connell was vice chancellor of the archdiocese of milwaukee until mandatory retirement kicked in last year. Given his rank in the church, he is an unlikely public critic of how his archdiocese has handled the ongoing sex abuse scandal and battled victims over compensation. You know, theres a sense of secrecy at that top level, and i would hope that they would, starting with the holy father. Pope benedict xvi would tell the cardinals and tell the bishops, talk, open up, let it all be known. Reporter connell agrees with victims here in milwaukee who says the archdiocese has taken an especially hard line to keep Abuse Victims secret and to protect its money. Attorney Jeff Anderson represents hundreds of clergy Abuse Victims from around the country. The archdiocese in milwaukee has been particularly deceitful, because theyve been insulated for so long, they felt and believed they could get away with it. Reporter for decades, wisconsins state law prevented most victims of sexual abuse from filing lawsuits, which protected the church. When that changed, critics say the archdiocese prepared for upcoming lawsuits by moving its money. Church financial records show 55 million buried here, in a Cemetery Trust fund. The church says the money was paid by people who bought burial plots, expecting perpetual maintenance at eight archdiocese cemeteries. Marquette University Law professor, ralph says if any money was used to protect it from Abuse Victims, the diocese may have broken the law. Thats whats called a fraudulent conveyance under the law. Reporter Abuse Victims cried foul about the Cemetery Fund and other transfers, including a 74 million parish deposit fund. They point to this line from the minutes ofs a 2003 archdiocese Financial Council meeting about abuse cases that reads, we are working on a plan to shelter the parish deposit fund. In december, a bankruptcy judge stated that the parish Fund Transfers were fishy but legal. Who could explain, new york Cardinal Timothy dolan, now arguably the most powerful catholic in the u. S. He was archbishop of milwaukee when the Cemetery Trust fund was established and when the 74 million parish deposit fund was moved. Archbishop dolan, now Cardinal Dolan, made a conscious decision to secretly and in a quite sinister way, move funds into parishes and transfer funds into other corporations to avoid having to pay the survivors. Reporter ridiculous, says the cardinal. This was his response in february of 2011, when the allegations of sheltering the money first surfaced. To think that there was 130 million in hidden funds, like dolans got some offshore account in the Cayman Islands or something . This is, this is just ludicrous. Reporter Cardinal Dolan declined an interview with cnn and the attorney representing the Cemetery Trust fund says the obligation to maintain the cemeteries never ends. No one knows, for sure, how much is enough. An ultimate win for the victims could open up not only the 55 million in the Cemetery Trust, but future cemetery earnings. A win for the church could provide a blueprint for other diocese going through bankruptcy and could propel dolans reputation in the eyes of the vatican as the guardian of the american church. Meanwhile, the archdiocese is spending millions in legal fees, to protect its money and reputation, which father connell believes needs to stop. Its the love of money. Maybe that translated into greed, that is the root of all evils. And that seems to be what i see playing out in that situation. Whats under the lid. What is being hidden . How embarrassing can it be . Reporter ted rowlands, cnn, milwaukee. So last month, Lance Armstrong, as we all know, admitted to Oprah Winfrey that he used performance enhancing drugs to win his seven Tour De France titles. Since then, everybody has been trying to figure out just how much money it made lance through endorsements. Now we may have an answer. Bloomberg news says they have gotten a number, that armstrong made more than 218 million. That is more money than anybody thought. But you know what, lance isnt the only one who benefited from his cheating, and that brings me to tonights number, 1 billion. Thats the estimated value of the Tour De France. The tour is the worlds biggest annual sporting event. Every year, it brings in 200 million in revenue. Thats right. Owners of the tour earn as much in one year, due in large part to lance, as lance earned in his entire career. And as amazing as it might sound, since 1947, the tour has been owned and operated by one family, the amaris. In addition to the tour, the amari Sport Organization also owns the decar rally and the paris marathon. Now, since you cant sell tickets to races that are run on public roads, most of their money comes from sponsorship and television rights. And if you think a supercharged lance didnt help pick up ratings and sponsors, consider this. In 2006, the first race done after lances retirement, ratings plunged in germany and france and here in the United States, viewership was down, once lance left, 52 . Lance made a whole lot of other people rich too. Still to come, a woman found dead in a hotel water tower.

We have new information tonight about. The autopsy of that young woman who was found in the water tank in the water tower of the roof of a hotel. The Coroners Office tells us her cause of death is deferred. Kyung lah is following this absolutely gruesome story. Shes got video for you and shes outfront. Reporter water from the tap, something the cecil hotel doesnt want you to see. Hotel resident, alvin taylor, helped us videotape it with a cell phone. Smells like chlorine. Reporter chlorine, what the city is using to flush the hotels entire water system, after the gruesome discovery of a womans body inside one of the rooftop tanks that may have been there for as long as 2 1 2 weeks. Four tanks connect to the hotels drinking supply, and during those weeks, hundreds of residents and hotel guests have been using it. It makes me sick to my stomach. Thats why a lot of people have left and went to another hotel. Just the thought of it, for so long. Reporter the woman inside the tank, 21yearold alicia lamb. The tourist from vancouver, canada, arrived in los angeles on january 26th. Surveillance video shows her acting oddly inside the hotel elevator, as if shes hiding from someone. But katie orphan he has lamb didnt seem odd at all when they met. She was very outgoing, very lively, for vendly. Reporter orphan is the owner of a bookstore around the corner called the last bookstore, one of the last places lamb was seen by anyone, as she bought presents for her parents and sister. Talking about what books she was getting and whether or not what she was getting would be too heavy to travel around as she traveled or took home with her. Reporter that was january 31st. The young woman planned to see more of california, say police. Her parents flew down to los angeles to plead for the city to help find their daughter. Outside the familys restaurant near vancouver, a memorial for a young life lost too soon in an unforgettable manner. It kind of feels like the beginning of a noir novel. Like this is the beginning of a Raymond Chandler story and Phillip Marlow is going to figure out what happened. And unfortunately, this is real life. Reporter kyung, this story is just awful. The testing of the hotel water is complete. What do the tests show . I spoke to the l. A. Department of Public Health and they said that they look for two specific types of bacteria and the tests came back negative. Now, you may be wondering, okay, how is this possible if a body is decomposing in one of those water tanks . Well, its been quite cool here in los angeles over these last few weeks, that in combination with the natural chlorine that is put into city water, it was enough to make the water safe to drink, as icky as it may seem, science says its still safe enough. Still safe enough. Thats the bottom line, i guess. Reporter yep. Wow. All right. Kyung lah, thank you very much. It is just a truly disturbing story, and of course, a horribly tragic story for that poor girl. Still to come, new information in the Oscar Pistorius murder trial. The roommate of the girl who was killed, her best friend is outfront. Plus, shots fired on the Las Vegas Strip today which leads to a deadly car crash.

We start with stories we care about, where we focus on our reporting from the front lines. And i want to begin with that massive werent storm that right now is across 20 states, coming across the United States. A state of emergency has been declared in missouri right now, where snow, sleet, and ice have been completely wreaking havoc across the state. If the prediction for a foot of snow holds in kansas city, it would be the highest daily snowfall in a hundred years. This footage is in st. Louis. Its from storm chaser reid timer, who told us the roads are lake an ice skating rink. He told us these are some of the worst conditions hes seen in the area since he began chasing storm 15 years ago. These images are just amazing. All these people that are going to be stuck out there overnight. Just unbelievable. And there was a startling scene on the Las Vegas Strip today. A dispute in a Valet Parking lot spilled on to las vegas boulevard. Some of in a black range rover, all right, well show you the picture here, shot at a person driving a maserati. Then the maserati crashed into a taxi and the taxi caught fire. The sports cars driver, cab driver, and passenger were all killed. Police are still looking for the range rover, which fled the scene. The nature of the dispute is not known, but we asked a spokesman for the Las Vegas Police department if it could have been drug related and he could only say at this point theyre not ruling out anything. Lindsey graham told an audience in easley, south carolina, yesterday, that, quote, 4,700 have been killed in american drone strikes, but he didnt disclose his source. Now, total numbers on drone deaths to the consternation of many, are closely held by the u. S. Government. So this seemed like a big headline. The afp released a story that many Media Outlets then picked up, writing that, quote, it was the first time that a politician or any government representative had referred to a total number of fatalities in drone strikes. Well, it might have been the first time, except when we called senator grahams office, it turns out he was getting his numbers from a public source, he said, the bureau of investigative journalism. Well, californias state senator, lew kraya has introduced a bill thats going to make it illegal for someone to drive if your blood contains, people, marijuana. A medical team says thc, the active ingredient in marijuana could stay in your blood for days or even weeks. This raises a lot of questions about how is the law going to be enforced . Blood tests are not very effective, because thc is not effectively tested there. Urine tests can detect it for days. So would that mean that you have to pee in a cup on the side of the road . Many questions ander with not able to get answer. It has been 567 days since the u. S. Lost its top credit rating. What are we doing to get it back . What are we doing, washington . Theres deafening silence from you. And now ow fourth story outfront. A bombshell in the Oscar Pistorius murder trial. Lead investigator detective hilton bortha is now off the case after revelations that he was facing seven charges of attempted murder himself. Bortha and two other Law Enforcement officials were pursuing a murder suspect in 2001 when bortha allegedly opened fire on a mini bus filled with people. The charges had been dropped, but they were reinstated, according to reports, on february 4th. That is, obviously, ten days before the Oscar Pistorius shooting. Outfront tonight, south africas National Police commissioner, i talked to her earlier and i started by asking her why bortha was ever even assigned to this case. You mentioned that this matter was decided upon on the 4th. We received the decision yesterday. So youre saying that you didnt know that they were reinstated on february 4th, but no one told you. In other words, he was on the job without your knowing that, right . Thats the bottom line. The february 4th we are getting from yourselves in the media, but i am confirming to you that the feedback we received was yesterday. Yesterday in court, bortha was panned for his performance, okay, and here are some of the issues. He admitted he wasnt wearing protective boots when he was at the crime scene, he admitted to overlooking a bullet that hit the toilet bowl, and he said he found two boxes of testosterone, which later it came out that it was too early to identify the substance in that in those containers. He also gave conflicting accounts about how far witnesses were that had heard screaming. Originally, he had 600 or more yards, later revised that to 300. And a prosecution official told bbc later when he left the court, were in terrible trouble. Now, at first, the police spokesperson, of course, said there were no plans to pull bortha off the investigation, despite the charges against him. Did you pull him off because of his performance in court . Whether he performed poorly or whether he performed excellently, it is a court that will tell us tomorrow. A lot of the issues that you are raising about whether there was contamination in all those aspects, those matters are subject. We answer to those questions in court. What is the bottom line, in terms of your view, commissioner, of hilton borthas performance . Did he do a good job . Bortha is a very good investigator. And bortha did his job. And hes got 22 years of experience, and i think he presented the case of the police well in court. Now, if pistorius has denied bail at this bail hearing, hes going to be held, of course, at the prison, which is a notorious prison, the conditions have obviously been widely criticized and it can be incredibly difficult for inmates. Allegations of rape, violence, cramped conditions. Do you worry about pistorius safety if he is denied bail in that prison . There are many people that are in those jails. And i think south africa is one of the countries that seriously respects peoples rights, same as the victims that are in jail, that are rights are respected. And i do think that we are running prisons according to, you know, Global Human Rights conditions. I am not here to, you know, to protect the prisons, but i know, as a South African, because i have viewed the service of the prisons, that our prisons are not as horrible as you put them. Do you feel a pressure, though, to set an example with pistorius . You talk about your prisons, but this is a domestic incident. South African Medical research counsel, so its a South African source, says that 40 of men in south africa have admitted to hitting their partners. Onefourth of men have raped a woman at some point in their lives. Does that put pressure on you, as the Police Commissioner, as a woman, to get a verdict on this case . I would say to you that any form of crime is our business as police. Whether that is a rape, whether its murder, whether its housebreaking, whether its breaking into a business, its crime. Our business is to ensure that citizens of this country are safe and secure. All right, well the missteps by the prosecution affect the case against Oscar Pistorius . Robert shapiro is with me. He was also a member of o. J. Simpsons defense team. Former prosecutor wendy murphy also joins me. Wendy, let me start with you. You heard the Police Commissioner in south africa, obviously, defensive and angry a bit there. Defending the work of her investigator, hilton botha. There is now a new lead investigator. Is the case over or can it be saved . Well, lack, i think it was a smart move to get him off the case, simply because it would have become a distraction. But and i thought she did a terrific job and didnt sound particularly defensive. Look, this guy may have said some things in court that are problematic, but nothing he said, even if he made mistakes or didnt wear his booties at the crime scene, has anything to do with the real evidence that really matters, that will really be problematic for pistorius. So for me, this investigator is a distraction and getting him off the case is good for the prosecution. All right. But you dont think there was damage done to the case . Robert, do you agree . You know, erin, it depends on what evidence was recovered, whether there was any forensic evidence that was recovered, any evidence of contamination or any evidence of manipulation. This would be a crucial issue if this case was tried in america before a jury. But in south africa, as we know, jury trials were outlawed in 1930. So a judge is going to be hearing this. And judges generally are more likely to favor prosecution witnesses and police witnesses. So i dont think its going to have as large an impact as it would if it was in this country. And thats an interesting point. Also, as people are aware, all of this information being in the public realm so early during the bail hearing, it would also be unusual here, but they dont even have the forensics back, to your point. The defense, obviously, though, didnt seem to have a good day today, and yesterday they did, in part because of those mistakes made by botha. But today they didnt have a good day. The prosecution was poking holes in pistorius version. I want to quote something the prosecutor said, because i think a lot of viewers will you said this. He said, you want to protect her but you dont even look at her . You dont even ask, reeva, are you all right . His version is so improbable. And he says, how could he retrieve that pistol under the bed without noticing that she wasnt there. It sounds crazy, but this case will not be lost on whether or not people will be able to believe something. I think one of the craziest things he said is that he ran down to the bathroom without his prosthetic legs on and shot through the bathroom door, and then that he then went back to the bedroom, saw that she wasnt there, which is when he thought, oh, boy, maybe i shot her. And instead of then running to the phone or being crazy, he puts his legs on. I thought that was the dumbest thing he said. Why would you put your legs on, take the time to put your legs on after you realize, shes not in the bed, and you just shot somebody in the bathroom . That, i think, is very bad news for pistorius. Robert, you were o. J. s defense attorney and there are a lot of comparisons being made between this case and that one, in terms of the circumstances, in terms of the likelihood that he that Oscar Pistorius will be able to be deemed not guilty. Do you see this case as similar . Its media fantasy to try to make these cases similar. Theres only one similarity that i see. Yes . These are two famous athletes and the victims were beautiful women. Other than that, the simpson case was one where the jury had to decide who was responsible or if mr. Simpson was responsible for the murder. In this case, a judge will decide whether or not mr. Pistorius story, to the judge, looking him in the eye, is incredible and believable. So one is what we call a whodunit, and the other is what is it . So to draw these kind of parallels is nice for tabloid news, but has no basis in reality. All right. Well, well see you both again very soon. And i appreciate your time. Okay. As the bail hearing continued today, friends and family of Reeva Steenkamp gathered at her memorial in johannesburg. Gena myers was one of reevas best friends and she joins me now on the phone from johannesburg. Gena, thanks very much. And i know it was a hard day for you. What happened at the Memorial Service today . Today, we pretty much just wanted to celebrate reeva, as a person, and for who she is and what she was. We have some new pictures of you and reeva. I know youve known her for about six years and youve been very, very Close Friends for most of that time. She was staying with you for the past, about five months, i know. What was it like living together . It was so much fun. She was just, she was part of my family. So it was like having she was like my sister, and it was like having another sister. Did she talk a lot about oscar . Or did she not really talk about him at all . I know it sounds like you had all these special times where you would talk about everything, so im just curious whether she really spent a lot of time talking about him or not . We did. We spoke about a lot of stuff, her relationships, my relationships. It was very much we told each other, there wasnt much we kept from each other. So we did speak about him. Was it mostly positive . Did she have any worries . I mean, obviously, what she said then, doesnt have anything to do with what happened, of course, on valentines day, but it does help people understand whether she was in love . Yes, once again, she really was happy. There was never a moment where she questioned herself, but she was a happy person. Shes a very bubbly person. Still to come, the oscars are just a few days away and we bring you a real story with a lot of heart. And bugging your boss office. Wow, we would all love to do that. Sending naked photos to your coworkers, not so much. But guess what, it all happened at the fbi. Restaurant is hard, try running four. Fortunately weve got ink. It gives us 5x the rewards on our internet, phone charges and cable, plus at Office Supply stores. Rewards we put right back into our business. This is the only thing weve ever wanted to do and ink helps us do it. Make your mark with ink from chase. In the middle of the night it can be frustrating. Its hard to turn off and go back to sleep. Intermezzo is the first and only prescription sleep aid approved for use as needed in the middle of the night when you cant get back to sleep. Its an effective sleep medicine you dont take before bedtime. Take it in bed only when you need it and have at least four hours left for sleep. Do not take intermezzo if you have had an allergic reaction to drugs containing zolpidem, such as ambien. Allergic reactions such as shortness of breath or swelling of your tongue or throat may occur and may be fatal. Intermezzo should not be taken if you have taken another sleep medicine at bedtime or in the middle of the night or drank alcohol that day. Do not drive or operate machinery until at least 4 hours after taking intermezzo and youre fully awake. Driving, eating, or engaging in other activities while not fully awake without remembering the event the next day have been reported. Abnormal behaviors may include aggressiveness, agitation, hallucinations, or confusion. Alcohol or taking other medicines that make you sleepy may increase these risks. In depressed patients, worsening of depression, including risk of suicide, may occur. Intermezzo, like most sleep medicines, has some risk of dependency. Common side effects are headache, nausea, and fatigue. So if you suffer from middleofthenight insomnia, ask your doctor about intermezzo and return to sleep again.

Its the only wrap with patented heat cells that penetrate deep to relax, soothe, and unlock tight muscles. For up to 16 hours of relief, try thermacare. Our fifth story outfront, misconduct. Even illegal activity at the fbi. And wait until you hear the details. Bugging a boss office, sending naked photos to coworkers. It all sounds a lot more like a hollywood movie plot than the inner workings of what should be one of the most respected agencies in the United States of america. Cnn has exclusively obtained internal fbi reports and investigative correspondent drew griffin is outfront. The fbis motto is fidelity, bravery, integrity. Agents take down bank robbers. Shots are being fired. Reporter and the mob. The fbis polished image kept in the spotlight by countless tv shows and movies. Im with the fbi. Reporter but theres another side to the fbi contained in these confidential internal records obtained by cnn that show serious misconduct by employees and even supervisors. Assistant fbi director candice will oversees the agencys office of professional responsibility. She sends out the reports four times a year to all 36,000 employees. We do our very best. We dont, obviously, if you know anything about our quarterlies, and theyre not a public document, but we know that doesnt mean that cnn doesnt have a copy, there are no names, there are no locations, there are no job titles. We do our very best to sanitize the quarterlies so that the employees identity is protected, while imparting as much knowledge as we can about what happened, so that employees can learn something from it. Reporter cnn obtained these summaries from the last year that include an employee who hid a recording device in a Supervisors Office and did an unauthorized search of that office. Another who was inlved in a domestic dispute at a mistress apartment, in which the police were called. Another hid or destroyed electronic evidence. And one other employee repeatedly committed check fraud. And then theres the employee who married a drug user dealer and lied about it. All of them were fired. Knowing what this agency does, knowing what this agency is about, how can anybody be so stupid . Well, you know, its funny you say that because we do we look at our cases and we are struck sometimes. Ive been doing this a really long time. Nine years at the fbi, and as long as ive been doing it and there are days i think ive seen it all. But i really havent. I get files and think, wow, i never would have thought of that. I dont think i would ever bug my boss office, especially if my boss was an fbi agent. Its extraordinary. I agree. There are some that just take the cake. That was one where, planting a recording device and rifling through her briefcase and lying about it, thats why this employee thats why thats a former employee. Reporter internal reports show a 14day suspension that paid for a sexual favor, using a cell phone for nude photos. And only a fiveday suspension for the employee who repeatedly used a government issued blackberry to send sexually explicit messages to another employee at work. These actions follow misconduct we reported two years ago, that included sleeping with informants, and viewing pornography on bureau computers. Is that enough punishment for this kind of behavior . Keep in mind, if you lose a weeks pay, that hurts, or two weeks in some cases. Weve seen a rash of sexting cases or nude photo cases and we are hoping that getting the message out in the quarterlies will teach people you cant do this stuff. When you are given an fbi blackberry, its for official use, not to text the woman in another office who you found attractive or to send a picture of yourself in a state of undress. Reporter in the last three years, the fbi disciplined 1,045 employees, 85 were fired and will says the internal warnings sent out by her office do deter bad behavior. They do learn. Ive had employees email me, stop me in the hallway, call me and say i didnt know you couldnt do that. Reporter we did reach out to the Fbi Agents Association who told us basically the same thing candace will told us, to keep in mind the ratio of disciplinary agents low nest the federal government and private sector. Were really talking about a very, very small group of incredibly stupid people. Erin. That is for sure, drew. Thank you. Still to come, a remarkable idea that just might win an oscar this weekend.
