FBI counter-terrorism supervisor has his gun, $6,000 Rolex and cash stolen after a night of heavy drinking with exotic dancers
2017-11-10
[Mail] An FBI counter terrorism supervisor is currently under an internal investigation after a night of heavy drinking with exotic dancers led to his gun being stolen, new documents reveal.

Robert Manson was drinking heavily in a fifth-floor room in the Westin Charlotte hotel in the North Carolina city when his gun, $6,000 Rolex and some cash were stolen from him, a Charlotte- Mecklenberg police report says.

Manson, who is a unit chief in the FBI's international terrorism sector, was heavily intoxicated but uninjured when police were told of the incident, the New York Times reported.

The agent was visiting Charlotte on July 9 for training, and agents told police they'd spent that night drinking with women they believe were exotic dancers.

#14  A Rolex is a bit pricey for a front-line Feeb. However, to be fair, a person might blow most of his paycheck on a $6000 Rolex, it might have been a gift or it could have been inherited.

#8  To be fair, he is an expert in counterterrorism, not prostitution.

#7  My guess is that he engaged her -er- services and then refused to pay or perhaps demanded that it be free, "Do you know who I am?".

#4  Who gets really 'fired' these days? Yeah, you fire a VA administrator only to see them rehired 6 months later.

Got to repeal the Civil Service Act.

#3  Probably a key man on the Russia investigations for Mueller.

It's impossible for me to quantify the increase in disgust and cynicism I have experienced with regard to bureaucratic organizations in the last 20 years.

#2  Actually, the report said that when the police interviewed the agent the day after the theft, he was still too drunk to talk to them coherently. So they had to get the info from the agent in the room next door.
He's on road to high management.
