Somebody found the office key

Feds begin sweep of NOAH offices

The T-P reporter seems uncertain as to who the people showing up at the NOAH offices today actually are only reluctantly taking their word for it here.

Officials arriving just before 10 a.m. at NOAH offices near City Hall, on the 10th floor of an office building at 1340 Poydras St., declined to speak in detail to a reporter, as one of them said simply that "we're guests" at the offices. But they appeared to be carrying out a subpoena issued last week as part of a federal inquiry that includes the FBI and Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Two of the investigators, as they wheeled a dolly into the office, said they were with HUD's Office of Inspector General. At least 14 total investigators are on the scene this morning, including a few wearing blue jackets with the FBI insignia.


But really these guys could be anyone.

Looks to me like one bouncer from Coyote Ugly, three guys from the local appliance store and, of course, the "Can you hear me now?" guy showed up to deliver a washing machine but what do I know?
