"The Department of Energy official responsible for nuclear fuel and radioactive waste is no longer employed by the federal agency after two alleged airport baggage theft incidents, according to local reports and court records.
Sam Brinton, the former deputy assistant secretary for spent fuel and waste disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy, was charged in December for grand larceny in Nevada. Brinton was accused of stealing luggage from Harry Reid International Airport, according to a report from KLAS."
Sam Brinton is no longer a DOE employee. By law, the Department of Energy cannot comment further on personnel matters, a department spokesperson said."

Luggage of all things. They are making 100k+ and running around stealing luggage from airports? Strange.

Good

That's such a weird thing to do. Even weirder that they kept doing it after they got caught

Seems fair to lose your government job when caught committing grand larceny. Is it usual for there to be an article about such an incident though?

yes?

Someone with top secret security clearance was caught blatantly committing felonies.

Id say thats newsworthy.

Ugh I didn't even think of that but I guess it could be a possibility, given the nature of the thefts and their high salary. If they were strapped for cash, could have just stolen from a store or something. Gross.

Given the past few years, I figured we just didn't care about people with top secret security clearance blatantly committing felonies.

I'm sure whatever you're referencing has been posted on CE many times over. Or, I could be wrong. Maybe I don't know what you're insinuating.

It's fair that they lost their job.

But I fucking despise how conservatives are running up and down with this story. LGBTQ+ people are just people, some of them are bad people too. Using this as an excuse to mock the person for their identity, or worse, mocking all NB/trans/whatever else people is just so shitty, and I've seen a ton of it already.

Judge them for the crime, not for being NB, jeez.

Rational people still care about these things. Its only those on the fringes who selectively care based on party affiliation.

People in the government, who are entrusted with our secrets and information, should be of a better moral character. This isnt hard.

That job has to pay well, why would he feel the need to steal random luggage. Weird
Reminds me of lindsay lohan or whoever it was that was a kleptomaniac

Glad he got fired. He shouldn't have been stealing luggage like that. Probably the worst thing he could do other than... *checks notes*... steal top secret nuclear secrets from the United States.

Most "stories" used by conservatives tend to be nothingburgers so a story with actual meat is treated like mana from heaven
