Washington (eCanadaNow) - FBI agents raided the Washington D.C. offices of Special Counsel Scott Bloch on Tuesday.  Bloch was appointed by President Bush back in 2003.

The Office of Special Counsel was put into place in order to protect the rights of whistle-blowers, and also look into political activity which may not be kosher.

According to reports, Bloch made an attempt to try and destroy computer files which were in his office.  

The raid was apparently related to an obstruction of justice by Bloch during 2006.
