The Chattanooga Times Free Press Reports this little gem:

Former Chattanooga Mayor Bob Corker’s official e-mails are missing from the city of Chattanooga and may have been stolen, according to city officials and a police report.

The e-mails, contained on a compact disc, were discovered missing after the campaign of Republican U.S. Senate candidate Ed Bryant sought to obtain them last month through an Open Records Act request, officials said.

Are you believing this? Stolen? Maybe like they were “stolen” for Don Sundquist?
Let’s flash back to the Sundquist administration and the ongoing scrutiny involving his administration (excerpts from the Tennessean):

Ganier, who is charged with four counts of obstruction of justice, is accused of deleting or concealing e-mails while he was the target of an investigation, according to court records.

and this:

In his writings, the judge [Forester] said prosecutors have evidence that Ganier tried to delete e-mails that reveal a close relationship between himself, Sundquist, Stamps and Sundquist’s chief of staff, Fischer.

“While the (prosecution) is not interested in throwing out the governor’s name gratuitously in the hopes it will inflame the jury, the fact is that this case is, by definition, about a grand jury investigation into the circumstances surrounding the award of state contracts to those close to Sundquist,” the judge wrote.

Forester named Fischer, who was also once the state commissioner of Economic and Community Development under Sundquist, as another person whom
the investigation was “focusing on.”

By the way, Alex Fischer is a major supporter of and contributor to Bob Corker and regularly appears on Host Committees for Bob Corker’s fund raising events in East Tennessee.
