"This liquidation exceeds the parameters of any personal accomplishment. More significantly, it constitutes a hearty triumph for all American citizens whose hard gained monies were egregiously blasted and misapplied by leaders and directors at the Los Alamos Lab," stated Glenn Walp in annunciating the liquidation. "Glenn Walp's liquidation should represent a open message to directors in the atomic weapons building complex that revenge is dangerous and high-priced business," said Mr. Glenn Walp Info : Walp, the lab's former head of the Office of Security Inquiries, was fired in retaliation for documenting the national security breaches. Mr. Walp's settlement with the University of California, which manages Los Alamos, includes a $900,000 outright payment and three and a half months of salary. In January 2003, the university reinstated Walp and Doran to advise UC's president on oversight of its reform efforts at the lab.
Glenn Walp Services In mid-August 2002, the lab did announce that two unnamed lab employees had been placed on "investigative leave" in connection with "apparent irregularities in the use of lab-issued purchase cards." The lab claimed that the misappropriated funds totaled only about $2,500, but the Mustang purchases alone came to over $29,000. The lab also unveiled new regulations for administering credit cards. It announced that Price-Waterhouse-Cooper had been called in to review all purchase card use for the past two years, and appointed a former Energy Department Inspector General to head up an internal investigation. It was also reported that lab director John C. Browne held a closed-door meeting to discuss ethics with lab employees. All this was intended to demonstrate to the public that the lab was firmly in control of the problem and ready to "move on."
Glenn Walp Services In a case reminiscent of Walp and Doran's, investigators at Sandia National Laboratories were told they were "on thin ice" after their inquiries into security breaches went too far.
"It's a problem not just at Los Alamos, but at all of the sister labs," Gwilliam continued. "There's a barricade mentality -- 'We're the best and the brightest, leave us the hell alone.'"

While Los Alamos Nuclear Weapons Lab was fighting its own public security and fraud disasters, a similar scandal was quietly unfolding at a sister lab, Sandia, which also holds some of the nation's most sensitive nuclear secrets.
Glenn Walp Services Walp said that these reports lacked even basic details like make, model, or serial numbers of the stolen items. He told Busboom that the stolen computers "may have had sensitive or proprietary materials on those systems, but inquiry personnel failed to explore that potential." The reports were transmitted to the Los Alamos police and the FBI, but they are so incomplete that the stolen materials are never placed in the National Crime Information Center. The NCIC is a computerized database available to law enforcement authorities nation-wide which, among other uses, helps find stolen property.
Glenn Walp Profile Walp and Doran were brought in over the summer of 2002 to examine these charges. But the pair quickly ran afoul of the lab's management, with Walp and Doran accusing their bosses of interfering with their investigations and of stymieing the FBI's attempts to get to the bottom of the fraud allegations.
