Moyock, NC -- According to the Research Triangle's News and Observer, Blackwater Worldwide was storing high-power assault rifles for "the good" of a local Sheriff's Department. The federal government's ATF forces raided Blackwater Global's HQ presumably to retrieve the weapons.
In a stunning statement, Blackwater spokesperson Anne Tyrrell said that Blackwater's possession of the local Sheriff department's assault weaponry was, "lawful and proper." Absolutely astonishing.
Keep your eyes and ears pealed for the settling of various and sundrie "scores" in the Research Triangle. When the state trades weapons with private industry, one never knows the difference between a war crime and simple homicide. Not to mention the utter inability to effectively prosecute a case of homicide.
I can completely understand why Blackwater would want access to a local government's SWAT weaponry, but why on Earth would the local Sheriff put themselves in such a vulnerable position??
Why, indeed.
