The problem with this AB is/was his agenda. He is trying to make a point from the outset of his career and his report is a loose collection of third-hand anecdotes, wilful breaking of trust and the rules, and uninformed observations; added to that his behaviour (going on the run, topless photos, allusions to his impending assassination) implies some sort of psychiatric episode.

I recall, when I was a Recruit Flight Commander many years ago, a young armourer faking his own disappearance and persuading an equally gullible young airman to cover for him, with tails of secret mercenary armies, submarines waiting to pick him up, and so on. When his room was searched, apart from finding MDC and some dets, the police also found detailed records of police shift rosters, movements of base execs etc. When asked to account for these, he said he wanted to expose 'lax' security. These days Special Branch would be on to him and he'd be detained under Anti-Terrorism legislation; in this occasion he was detained under the Mental Health Act.

A little knowledge + Internet + paranoia = calls for 'immediate enquiry' + 'heads must roll'
