Brent Foster, the environmental activist hired by Oregon Attorney General John Kroger to lead Kroger's promised crackdown on polluters, resigned Tuesday after misrepresenting his involvement in a criminal environmental case, Kroger's office said late Tuesday.

Kroger said in a press release that he referred the matter to the Marion County district attorney's office for investigation, adding that "it is crucial that all members of the Department of Justice maintain the highest professional standards." His office declined to comment further.

Foster is dirty....real dirty....now he's going to have to pay. Wouldn't it be cool if they threw him in jail for sixmonths/year?

Foster Dirty?

Dirty from what exactly?

Present the evidence.

It's safe to assume Foster was peddling influence from the AGs office, serving as a lobbiest for special interests as well as trying to control and direct distribution of stimulus money from the feds to his friends. The evidence is there in the emails-even more evidence is likely to be in the emails that Foster refuses to make available to the PIR of citizens of the state of Oregon.

If you're such a Foster lover then bring him here so he can answer everybody's questions. And call the IRS and find out whats going on with the EANW formal complaint against the riverkeepers. Also, get Huhtala and Lee in here to explain why they smoke so much marijuana and expect to get elected to anything..hurry it up

Brent Foster is free to come to this site at his own discretion to present his case, any time he wishes to do so.

The EANW/NCO, IRS Complaint is a concoction of NCO(North Coast Oregon Message Board) and doesn't have any place here.

So, you are implying Huhtala and Lee smoke a little "Weed" is it?

Why is that and who are you to suggest anybody be held accountable or answerable for anything "Anonym"?

Maybe we should throw random "Breathylizer tests in for the rest, you think "Anonym"?

Yeah, I'm "implying it" and last time anyone checked drinking is legal and a breathalyzer isn't a need until the law takes you down for operating a motor vehicle, boat, train, airplane etc. Who am I to suggest anybody be held accountable? I am a citizen, a tax payer and a resident, thats who. Who the hell are you to attempt to deny me?

It's pretty sad when someone; such as Brent Foster, works so hard to help the environment and fight for clean waters and from one isolated incident people turn so quick on him.
Bottom line, his primary conern is our earth, the planet we all live on.
Come on...big picture people; is he really the threat? or are you?

I hope Brent reads this. I am a longtime land preservation activist in Santa Barbara/Goleta California. When our local nonprofit org reached out for new board members, we needed fresh ideas and reach into local academic circles; we imposed a boatload of expectations on candidates--absolute integrity, dedication, and good spirits. With Brent Foster, we got them all--with an engaging smile to match. I am to this day as proud as a mother hen as I follow Brent's career. You lucky Oregonians--you have true grassroots in this fellow and we miss him here. Brent, hi from Chris and the Ellwood monarchs!
