Krongard has decided to make like a tree and leave:
Brief excerpts from article:
State Department Inspector General Howard Krongard, who has been under investigation for possible conflicts of interest, said he will retire Jan. 15.
.. . . Krongard's position was undermined when he denied under oath to Waxman's committee Nov. 14 that his brother had a business relationship with a security contractor that Krongard's agency was probing, and later admitted that such a relationship existed.
As the State Department's chief watchdog since May 2005, Krongard oversees audits, inspections and investigations in the U.S. and abroad.
