Home U.S. World Entertainment Sports Business Health Science Technology Politics Offbeat Environment Travel Federal agents arrest Massey’s security chief over lying to FBI in mine explosion probe Source: AHN Location: Washington, D.C., United States Published: February 28, 2011 10:26 p.m. EST Topics: Disaster And Accident, Crime, Crime, Law And Justice, Industrial Accident Hughie Elbert Stover, Massey Energy subsidiary’s chief of security, has been arrested for lying to the FBI to deceive federal mine safety inspectors and blocking a criminal investigation into what is considered one of the worst American coal mining accidents in the last four decades. He is also accused of ordering disposal of relevant security-related documents vital for investigation in a company trash compactor at the Upper Big Branch Mine with the sole intention to obstruct and influence the disaster probe. "This conduct threatens our effort to find out what happened at Upper Big Branch. This inquiry is simply too important to tolerate any attempt to hinder it," said U.S. Attorney Booth Goodwin in a prepared statement. The West Virginia coal mine explosion killed 29 miners. Stover was indicted on Friday, but the news was released only after his arrest on Monday. At the time of the incident, Stover supervised security at the Upper Big Branch mine, one of Massey Energy coal mines where the deadly explosion happened in April last year. "Stover had himself directed and trained security guards at ... Upper Big Branch Mine to give advance notice of unannounced federal inspections," the indictment says. The Justice Department started probing the deadly blast last April. It has been learnt that Richmond-based Massey Energy Co violated safety instructions several times. The probe surprised to find that Stover and his guards used a radio frequency system to warn miners working underground about inspectors’ arrival every time in order to give them a chance to fix serious safety problems and avoid closure or fines. However, Massey Energy’s General Counsel Shane Harvey said that the company had taken this matter very seriously, adding that they had informed the Justice Department soon after they found that documents had been disposed of.
