Two investigators fired after sounding alarms about missing computers and alleged credit-card fraud at Los Alamos National Laboratory were hired Friday to assist in an inquiry of lab practices.
Glenn Walp and Steven Doran originally were hired by the lab to investigate the handling of government property, but were dismissed in November after reporting on alleged misuse of lab credit cards and $2.7 million in missing equipment.
On Friday, the university hired Walp and Doran to aid University of California President Richard Atkinson in investigating the alleged malfeasance. They also were given back pay to last November, when they were terminated by Los Alamos.
