Another Top Bush Aide Arrested
Claude Allen, who until a few weeks ago was Bush's Domestic Policy Advisor with an office in the West Wing of the White House, was arrested for a scheme to defraud retail stores in the DC area.
According to the police, Allen would purchase items at department stores, such as Target, then take the merchandise to his car, return to the store, pick the same item off the shelf and "return" it using the receipt he just got when he purchased the first item. That way he gets the stuff for free.
Police say he ripped off stores for over $5,000 by doing this more than 25 times.
It never ends with this Administration.
