FBI investigating LCPS and their Wheatland Farm land deal.

From Erica Garman at Living in LoCo:

The Center for Public Integrity, a nonprofit group dedicated to investigative journalism, posted an article today on its Land Use Accountability Project Web page detailing the controversy surrounding the Loudoun County Public School system’s failed purchase of the Wheatland Farm property.

For anyone familiar with the local blogosphere, your next stop on anything related to a story like this is Too Conservative and the expected post from Loudoun Insider:

I’ve known about this for some time but have kept it quiet for the sake of the investigation.  But it’s now public after the latest Center For Public Integrity article on the ridiculous Wheatland Farm saga was published this morning (link here, and a related article on Sal Cangiano here).  FBI and federal Department of Education agents have been interviewing people for months about the slimy deals brokered by LCPS.  I don’t think they would be spending this much time here if there wasn’t something there.  We’ll see.

That we will. Keep in touch with both of these blogs for more details as they come.
