Saturday, May 18, 2013 – Daily News WORLD BRIEFING escalated beyond the Pentagon's control. He said this step, which also applies to the military's approximately 19,000 recruiters and must be completed by July 1, is one among many that will be taken to fix the problem of sexual abuse and sexual harassment within every branch of the military. At a news conference with Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Hagel said he believes alcohol use is ''a very big factor'' in many sexual assault and sexual harassment cases, but there are many pieces to the problem. He and Dempsey spoke one day after all of the military's leadership were summoned to the White House to discuss the sexual assault problem with President Barack Obama, who has expressed impatience with the Pentagon's failure to solve it. At his Pentagon news conference, Hagel said it has become clear to him since taking office in February that holding people accountable for their actions is important, but simply firing people is not a solution. He said he gets a lot of advice on that. Investigator says he told top Treasury officials of IRS probe in June of campaign year 2012 WASHINGTON (AP) — Senior Treasury officials were made aware in June 2012 that investigators were looking into complaints from tea party groups that they were being harassed by the Internal Revenue Service, a Treasury inspector general said Friday, disclosing that Obama administration officials knew there was a probe during the heat of the presidential campaign. J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration, testified alongside ousted IRS head, Steven Miller, who did little to subdue Republican outrage during hours of intense congressional questioning. Both defiant and apologetic, Miller acknowledged agency mistakes in targeting tea party groups for special scrutiny when they applied for tax-exempt status, but he insisted that agents broke no laws and that there was no effort to cover up their actions. Miller only stoked the criticism of many Republicans, who are assailing the administration on a sudden spate of other controversies, as well, even as some Democrats tried to contain the political damage. ''I don't know that I got any answers from you today,'' Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., told Miller. ''I am more concerned today than I was before.'' At one point in the day's hearing, Treasury IG George said he had told the department's general counsel about his investigation on June 4, 2012, and Deputy Treasury Secretary Neal Wolin ''shortly thereafter.'' But, George cautioned, those discussions were ''not to inform them of the results of the audit. It was to inform them of the fact that we were conducting the audit.'' Venezuela's military enters high-crime slums PETARE, Venezuela (AP) — Stern-looking soldiers clutching assault rifles wave down the beat-up Chevy Caprice entering this sprawling slum on the outskirts of Caracas. Flashlights in his face, the driver steps out and places his hands on the roof while the soldiers frisk him for drugs and weapons. He's clean, and a hand gesture from the commanding officer sends him off into the maze of ramshackle homes that is Petare, one of the most dangerous parts of Venezuela's notoriously crime-infested capital. Since Monday, this scene is playing out day and night at dozens of military checkpoints set up here in the socialist government's latest attempt to control the oil-rich country's pandemic of violence. Critics dismiss the ''Secure Homeland'' initiative as a political charade that risks degenerating into human rights abuses while having no lasting impact on crime. But to many residents, weary of being terrorized by armed gangs, seeing troops on the streets is a welcome projection of government power. Hagel orders military to recertify all who have roles in sexual abuse prevention programs OJ Simpson's exlawyer contradicts testimony WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel on Friday ordered the military to recertify all 25,000 people involved in programs designed to prevent and respond to sexual assault, an acknowledgement that assaults have LAS VEGAS (AP) — The lawyer who defended O.J. Simpson on armed robbery charges delivered a potentially heavy blow to the former foot- ball star's bid for a new trial Friday, testifying that Simpson knew his buddies had guns when they went to a hotel room together to reclaim some sports memorabilia. Miami attorney Yale Galanter took the stand at an often combative hearing on Simpson's claim that he was so badly represented by his lawyer that his conviction should be thrown out. Point by point, Galanter contradicted much of his former client's testimony and strongly defended himself. He denied giving Simpson the go-ahead to retrieve the photos and footballs he believed had been stolen from him. He denied keeping Simpson in the dark about plea bargain offers that carried only a few years in prison. And he disputed Simpson's claim that the former athlete had no idea anyone in the hotel room had guns. ''When you look at the entire trial, I don't think I could have fought harder, done more,'' Galanter said of his handling of the case. ''I put every ounce of blood, sweat and soul into it.''
