Oh Crap

James O'Keefe arrested?

Alleging a plot to wiretap Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu's office in the Hale Boggs Federal Building in downtown New Orleans, the FBI arrested four people Monday, including James O'Keefe, a conservative filmmaker whose undercover videos at ACORN field offices severely damaged the advocacy group's credibility.

Also arrested were Joseph Basel, Stan Dai and Robert Flanagan, all 24. Flanagan is the son of William Flanagan, who is the acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana, the office confirmed. All four were charged with entering federal property under false pretenses with the intent of committing a felony.

Only speculation here but he could have been targeted for some undercover sting and O'Keefe was chomping at the bit to go after a big fish.

James O'Keefe was one of the two undercover journalists to do the expose on ACORN and child prostitution.

Dan has more and Ace has the affidavit.
