Indictment at MSU?

According to the local news, there will be an announcement at 2pm EDT about a major criminal investigation on campus. Hopefully I'll have more information as it comes in.

(I'm lying low at home just in case.)

From the Lansing State Journal, 3/10/08:

Significant criminal indictment to be announced at MSU

Midday update

Associated Press

EAST LANSING — Representatives from federal and local law enforcement agencies will gather at Michigan State University to announce an indictment in what they are calling a significant criminal case.

Representatives from the university police, FBI and the U.S. attorney's office would not discuss the nature of the case this morning.

A news conference in East Lansing is scheduled for 2 p.m.

Crap - I am off to grant jail. I always knew this would happen.

Velm: that was my first thought when I heard it was the Feds--"someone's off to grant jail!".

Then I realized if MSU were part of the press conference, it probably wasn't a case of fraud...

Holy cow...I'm amazed they finally cleared the case. My dad's lab in grad school was in that part of Ag. Not sure if they got what had been the lab he worked in or not.

And "hey" to everyone from sunny Cincy.
