Do you know anything about that? CAPRONI: I know what ['ve read in the paper. And I know that the Inspection Division is going to do a full inspection of this to see what exactly the unit chief said... SCHIFF: Well, I'm asking you beyond what you've read in the paper, and we ali know what the 1.G.’s gomg to do. When did you first lear about the fact that the head of the unit that was drafting these letters had warned superiors? Do you know who those superiors are? CAPRONI: 1 don't know who he says he warned. SCHIFF: Were you warned by him? CAPRONE No. SCHIFF: Do you know if anybody in your office was warned by him? CAPRONI: I'm not sure that I even necessarily agree that there was a warning. 1 don't -- | know that there were -- and I knew generally that there were some what I understood to be bureaucratic issues within that unit. That did not include... SCHIFF: You keep on describing these bureaucratic issues. { mean, I find an interesting, kind of, mix of acceptance of responsibility in your statement and denial of responsibility. You seem to accept responsibility for mistakes others made, but acknowledge very little responsibility on behalf of the office you run.
