Oklahoma City police look into wiretapping at Feed the Children
Oklahoma City police have begun an investigation at Feed The Children after a private investigator found evidence three offices had been illegally bugged.
The investigator "found remnants of wiretapping devices above the ceilings” during an almost six-hour sweep Wednesday evening of the charity’s Oklahoma City headquarters, according to a police report. The Christian relief organization is widely known because of its heart-wrenching televised appeals for funds to feed starving children. It claims to raise more than $1 billion in donations a year. The charity has been in turmoil for months because of a lawsuit over who was in charge there. The lawsuit was settled this month when founder Larry Jones agreed to give up operational control of the charity. He continues to work for Feed The Children as a spokesman and fundraiser. Wiretapping is a federal crime. It is unclear whether the wiretapping is connected to the power struggle at the charity. During the strife there, Jones was at odds with four key employees and most of the directors on the charity’s board.
