Citizens For Ethics In Government

I feel so sorry for those individuals that lost their life savings because of the fraud that was perpetrated by those in charge at Stanford Investments.  Now I understand that these Stanford scammers even used a member of Governor Bobby Jindal's cabinet to establish confidence with their potential investors by bringing this government official on their Stanford corporate jet to LSU football games in other states.  Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources, Scott Angelle, flew to LSU football games along with potential investors who had interests in oil and gas businesses.  I thought Governor Jindal was all about ethics reform, but then again he probably doesn't even know that his own employee flew on the Stanford corporate jet to football games.  Then again maybe Secretary Scott Angelle thinks this is part of his job description with state government.  Those investors that lost their life savings through the fraud at Stanford should probably request the airplane log book from the Stanford executives that stole from them.  They will see Secretary Scott Angelle's name in their plane's official log book.  They need to ask Governor Jindal if this is his idea of ethics reform that he speaks about so-so much.
