SynopsisIn an intriguing account of whistle-blowing, Berkowitz tells how he bypassed his chain-of-command and delivered his findings directly to the Office of the Inspector General., This is the story of Billy Gene Malone and the end of an era. Malone lived almost his entire life on the Navajo Reservation working as an Indian trader; the last real Indian trader to operate historic Hubbell Trading Post. In 2004, the National Park Service (NPS) launched an investigation targeting Malone, alleging a long list of crimes that were "similar to Al Capone." In 2005, federal agent Paul Berkowitz was assigned to take over the year- and-a-half-old case. His investigation uncovered serious problems with the original allegations, raising questions about the integrity of his supervisors and colleagues as well as high-level NPS managers. In an intriguing account of whistle-blowing, Berkowitz tells how he bypassed his chain-of-command and delivered his findings directly to the Office of the Inspector General.

  • Unbelievable Sad but True Story

    A compelling read. True story about a few shady, corrupt members of National Park Service at that time personally going after the highly respected goods trader at the Historic Hubbell Trading post. . .in the hopes of capitalizing on the place. It's now been reduced to nothing more than a gift shop. Sad but true. As Lord Acton once said - power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

  • Great read and Paul did a wonderful job

    Mr. Bill Malone was a victim of our National Park Service. The Park Service Was really wrong On the Hubbell Trading Post. You will never find this book or others like it sold at any of their books stores concessions.
