        Not much had changed for Joe, this news did not directly effect
him, at least not yet, and as such he did not really care.  The news was
damaging, that was for sure.  He waited a moment then piped up.

        "Sir, this is not a good report to have come out.  It is obvious
that there is at least two sets of loose lips here on the station.  The
obvious impact is that the investigation is now wide open to the public,
and public action will have to be made.  That complicates matters because
any lead, every action will be scrutinized by the public, and that will
not make closeing the investigation and solving the crime any easier.  But
I do have one question, exactly what does this have to do with the
Anti-Corruption Task Force?  This falls out of that jurisdiction and into
station security and JAG internal affairs."  Joe asked honestly, without
attitude.
