Business Espionage - Bugging at Feed the Children
Oklahoma City police have begun an investigation at Feed The Children after a private investigator found evidence three offices had been illegally bugged.
The investigator "found remnants of wiretapping devices above the ceilings” during an almost six-hour sweep Wednesday evening of the charity’s Oklahoma City headquarters, according to a police report.
Officials with the charity would not identify what three offices were bugged. The Christian relief organization is widely known because of its heart-wrenching televised appeals for funds to feed starving children. It claims to raise more than $1 billion in donations a year. The charity has been in turmoil for months because of a lawsuit over who was in charge there. (more)
