‘Proven’ deceptive or clueless on activist spying, PA official ‘hides’

The head of Pennsylvania’s Office of Homeland Security said last week that his office was not involved in the tracking of peaceful political activists and has reportedly “gone into hiding” now that his statement has been contradicted.

Recently publicized documents show that an intelligence company hired by the state’s Homeland Security office monitored the Tea Party, Students for a Democratic Society, anti-drilling groups, and other activist groups.
