Robert MacLean
Without introducing any document into his six year old docket, yesterday the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) rejected the U.S. Office of Special Counsel's (OSC) August 25, 2011 motion intervening in support of former Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Federal Air Marshal Robert MacLean.
Former Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Federal Air Marshal Robert MacLean was fired after his managers launched a 2004 retaliatory investigation against him. Last Thursday, the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) filed an amicus curiae with the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board in support of his actions. The OSC was created by Congress in response to the Nixon Watergate scandal and the fear it created preventing whistleblowers from coming forward to disclose corruption. Their gutsy action in the MacLean case is unprecedented as the OSC has never intervened AFTER the full MSPB in Washington DC has issued a "final decision."
