Former federal official wanted to 'ship out' homosexual workers to Detroit office
Source: Detroit Free Press
A management consultant and former Army inspector general told investigators that the one-time head of an office tasked with protecting the rights of federal workers said he intended to open a branch in Detroit and “ship out” homosexual workers he saw as hurting the agency, according to a report released this week.
The report found that the reassignments ordered during the tenure of Scott Bloch — head of the Office of Special Counsel (OSC) under President George W. Bush from 2004-2008 — could not be defended as “a legislative business purpose of the agency” and that they appeared “designed to ... target the removal of certain employees.”

The report adds to a lengthy saga involving Bloch, who earlier this year was ordered to spend one day in jail — and 24 months on probation — for having data removed from government computers, though he maintained it was done to protect them from viruses. Bloch also was charged with contempt of Congress in connection with that issue.
During his tenure, there also were complaints that Bloch went out of his way to hire young attorneys educated at the Ave Marie School of Law in Florida, a Roman Catholic institution founded by former Detroit Tigers owner and Domino’s Pizza founder Tom Monaghan of Ann Arbor, who is known for his religious and conservative viewpoints.
Maybe he can grow a long beard, get a TV show and get rich when the rubes throw money at him for his views.
