On September 6, I received a few calls at about 7a from the Inspector General Glenn Fine�s fax number 202 514 4001, and each time I answered, it was a fax machine calling me. I had filed complaint again August 31, 2006, and was still submitting evidence and information, both by e-mail and fax. And I had been faxing so that in the morning they would find my information.
After the calls from a fax machine, I received an actual telephone call and it was one of the secretaries who had dialed my number. When I asked if that had been she trying to call me just previously, she said she didn�t know anything about the previous calls from Fine�s fax number. She told me that the information I had faxed there over the weekend had been received but that 202 514 4001 was not Fine�s fax number. She said that this information had been referred to Fine, but that from then on it would not be referred any longer therefore I needed to use another fax number. And she gave me what I have seen is a general OIG fax number 202 616 9898 and told me that this was Glenn Fine�s fax number.
The fax number for Glenn Fine is 202 514 4001 according to the OIG website http://www.usdoj.gov/oig/offices/directory.htm and also according to my past experiences in directly sending him information there. And I had had to stop short in faxing him information over the weekend because the line was suddenly disconnected during what seemed to be a perfectly normal transmission. It was as though someone had come in and just taken the phone off the hook. And as for the 202 616 9898 number she gave me to use instead, it was either off the hook or receiving other faxes constantly because no matter when I called after midnight on September 8, 2006 and through to the morning, it was always busy.
I spend the day at the library getting the pertinent e-mails to the OIG, and then at night I fax from home for as long as I can manage to keep my eyes open and not fall asleep in the chair by the fax machine. A benefit to faxing at that hour is that the phone lines should be free.
