#1 Security failure at Oak Ridge

Submitted by Leo Torres, Jr., US Army CID (Ret) (not verified) on August 24, 2012 - 7:34pm.

How and why, the security at Oak Ridge fail so badly?

I do not have to tell you how much impact that embarrasement will have accross the nation, or the world. Every terrorist in the land will be encouraged to try entry into Y-12. To me that is quite
scary.

Sir, I have been in law enforcement and security most of my life. Sorry to say, but I have seen better
security measures at department stores. It's a shame that a department store with a small budget
can have better security than the Department of Energy.

It would give me a great satisfaction if you could cause the refinement of security at Oak Ridge.

Thank you for listening, and thank you for the good job you are doing.

Leo Torres, Jr.
