Then there was the X factor in Goss's departure: his judgment about people. After bringing with him a boarding party of staff members who seemed to specialize in mishandling personnel matters, Goss promoted Kyle (Dusty) Foggo to be the CIA's executive director and top budget chief. Foggo is now at the center of a growing investigation into a federal bribery case that has already sent former California Congressman Randy (Duke) Cunningham to prison for more than eight years. A source close to the investigation tells TIME that the Justice Department is investigating reports that one of Cunningham...

But the role of passing judgment and of meting out punishment belongs to the authorities; in the case of rape, murder, or theft, it is not the community that passes judgment but rather, the courts of law. In Kaavya’s case, judgment will and should be passed by the Administrative Board of Harvard College, her publisher, and perhaps the courts. As a community we should refrain from mercilessly condemning her actions...
