Justice Department finds Hoover era FBI abuses unde prosecutable
The Justice Department says abuses of power by FBI officials under J Edgar Hoover are too old to prosecute as statutes of limitations have run out. The report details lavish gifts and services to Hoover including home improvements and free tax advice, with agency workers performing tasks to avoid offending their supervisor. Only one official, John P. Dunphy, was prosecuted in 1976, fined $500 and placed on probation for taking lumber from the FBI.
