The report also concluded that the FBI fired Edmonds mainly for bringing forth the accusations. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.govexec.com/dailyfed/0105/011905c1.htm" target="blank">www.govexec.com/dailyfed/0105/011905c1.htm</a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
