[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 845687, member: 1132"] Page 17 of the report seems to infer that the investigators had in state ID considering the results of their tests: So why the intellectual dishonesty in not publishing the results of that? Because it doesn't fit their agenda? On page 15 of the report, they appear to cover their butts by stating that each investigator who participated in the straw purchase is ultimately given the gun I'd imagine that the ATF will use that to say that Bloomberg didn't violate federal laws, but just pretended to do so. However, were those guns were purchased with the investigator's personal funds? I doubt it. If NYC or Kroll (under the cost billed to NYC for the investigation) paid for the guns, I wonder if Bloomberg violated any local, state or federal laws barring the conversion of government funds (remember the 1.5 mil price tag for this sting?) for personal gain. If the investigator in fact did retain "permanent possession and ownership" of the firearm(s), I'd call that a personal gain. If they turned those guns over to NYC or Kroll, I'd call it a straw purchase. Either way, I'd call that probable cause for an investigation into the specifics of the sting. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
