Walter Reed rots

The rot is even deeper than we thought:

Washington, DC (WUSA) -- A major 9NEWS NOW EXCLUSIVE -- allegations from a former inspector at Walter Reed of widespread and dangerous problems in nearly all the buildings at the Army's premier hospital.

Burst steam pipes near electrical cables, rats, mold, and holes in floors and walls -- all of that extends far beyond the well-publicized problems at the notorious Building 18.

Building 40 is vacant and has been vacant for several years. It was the home of the Walter Reed Army institute of Research before that organization moved to Forest Glen Maryland.

The original plan was for the government to lease Building 40 to a private company who would renovate the facility and lease it back to the government. BRAC put an in to doing that.

The question is why should the government be putting funds into a building that no one plans on using?
