GSA official rises after records tampering in scandal era
A retired GSA official, Roger F. Carroll Jr., rose to director of quality control in 1964 after a prior demotion for doctoring records. Court testimony tied him to bribes through an intermediary, yet he avoided indictment. Carroll's ascent followed high level backing from figures linked to Speaker O Neill and White House allies amid the GSA scandal.
