From 9-11 ceremony |
The government's final witness in the public corruption trial of ex-sheriff Mike Carona testified Wednesday that FBI agents removed files on concealed weapons permits and volunteer reserves that were stashed in a "secret closet" in Sheriff's Department headquarters.
FBI Agent Jon Habben said he and other investigators found the hidden room in Carona's old office on May 23, 2008 – after they were alerted by then-Acting Sheriff Jack Anderson.
…
Anderson, who took over temporarily after Carona stepped down in January, led agents to a supply room closet where there was a "hidden button" to open a door, Habben said.
…
"I have discovered that inside the closet is a concealed button that activates an electronic latch which opens a secret compartment door that leads to a secondary small room," Anderson wrote in a confidential memo that was obtained by the Register. "Inside this clandestine smaller room is stored two computer towers, two monitors, a keyboard, a power backup unit, and a safe."
Habben, who is the government's 34th witness, will continue testifying Thursday….
UPDATE (12/11): a friend informs me that FBI agent Jon Habben is a former IVC student. It's a small world, I guess.
