Offices of Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., Jerry Lewis, R-Calif., and Jon Runyan, R-N.J., and several committees were burglarized.
(snip)
“The evidence points to someone with access to my office, and other offices in the Capitol complex, as the perpetrator,†freshman Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., surmised in a letter to the House’s Office of the Chief Administrative Officer.
Other offices hit—many of which handle information dealing with issues of national security, though nothing of a sensitive nature was reportedly taken—include those of Reps. Jerry Lewis, R-Calif., and Jon Runyan, R-N.J.; the Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security; and the Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
Those looking for some common link might note that Lewis serves on Appropriations; Gowdy sits on Oversight; and Runyan is a member of the Armed Services Committee. Also, staffers on the House Oversight Subcommittee on Health Care, District of Columbia, Census, and the National Archives, which Gowdy chairs, reported that $200 of their money went missing during business hours.

In April of last year, there was only one report of theft in an office.

Don't hold your breath. Or, if he does investigate himself, he's looking for testicle lumps.

The $200 sounds like it was done just to cover someone's detected snooping job, but you also can't completely discount employee misconduct totally unrelated to anything else that may be going on.
