FinalCall.com) - According to an investigation led by CNN, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) gave away approximately $85 million in household goods intended for Hurricane Katrina victims.
Those supplies, which ranged from basic kitchen goods to sleeping necessities, sat in warehouses for over two years before FEMA began giving the items away to federal and state agencies this year, the cable news network reported.
James McIntyre, FEMA’s press secretary, stated in an email to CNN that storage fees were costing FEMA more than $1 million a year and another agency wanted the warehouses torn down. “We needed to vacate them,â€"Distrust and caution are the parents of security."
