Just do a web search, and you'll get all the right-wing conspiracy theory sites that are claiming the same thing. Surprisingly pahunk didnt use prison planet's version of the tale... However, right-wing sites never seem to CHECK THEIR FACTS to see if they are right (nor does pahunk apparently). They just see 'big brother' attacking Americans over petty things with extreme use of force. So, let me give you the CORRECT information... quote:
As reported from ANIMAL (they actually contacted the US Dept. of Education) Source “Yesterday, the Department of Education’s Office of Inspector General executed a search warrant at a Stockton, Calif., residence with the presence of local law enforcement authorities. While it was reported in local media that the search was related to a defaulted student loan, that is incorrect. This is related to a criminal investigation. The Inspector General’s Office does not execute search warrants for late loan payments. Because this is an ongoing criminal investigation, we can’t comment on the specifics of the case. We can say that the OIG’s office conducts about 30-35 search warrants a year on issues such as bribery, fraud, and embezzlement of federal student aid funds. All further questions on this issue should be directed to the Department of Education’s Inspector General’s Office.” Sara Gast U.S. Department of Education Press Office I did check on US Dept of Education site for details, but I guess this info hasn't been update just yet.
