The alleged thief did not wait long before entering the SEC regional office in Fort Worth, Texas, as the individual entered the building during the shutdown\u2019s first week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A contracted security officer was present for the incident, but failed to stop the person, identify them or sign them in, as building protocols require, the SEC\u2019s inspector general said. The burglar \u201cbypassed\u201d a locked door, walked past the security guard and entered the SEC\u2019s office suite. The security guard failed to escort the individual through the building and in the elevators, also in contravention of the building\u2019s security policies.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The person then stole four laptops valued at more than $5,000, a bluetooth earpiece and a rolling briefcase.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/marketrelocationreport.com\/?p=99\">Supreme Court rejects lower court bid to review immigration judge gag order<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Federal employees are generally prohibited from using their government devices during a shutdown if they are placed in non-working furlough status, but are required to report to their offices on the first day of a lapse to ensure their devices are secured.
